Camp 2 - Day 4

I'm sorry I haven't written in a few days. The Internet went out before I could post my last two days, and amazingly two more days have passed by. This will be a quick recap as it is already after midnight and I need at least a little sleep.

The morning started out normal, we went to the different groups of girls to so hair. Then morning exercises and breakfast. The bible lesson was on "I am Adopted" but we didn't really use these words - because we didn't want any confusion. We stressed that they are wanted and chosen. Christine and Judith did the lesson, and an one point one person just started choosing students to come to the stage while they continued talking. Until every child was chosen.

It had rained hard the night before and still overcast in the morning. So we did not go to the sea, in the morning. Instead we did interest groups "Royal Activities" Princes Pampering, Royal Teams, Royal Jewelry, Royal Lawn Games, and Royal Table Games. Then in the afternoon we went to the sea.

The craft that evening was crowns and tiaras, some of which are still being worn today by the kids. This game was followed by "The Royal Family is Missing!" When ever we discuss the royal family, we are sure to include people from all different groups here, interns, team members, translators, volunteers, counselors, etc. This game was a scavenger hunt to collect 13 signatures from people hidden all over camp. There were many creative hiding places, however one of our interns might have had one of the most interesting thus far. She hid in the Man Hole. The kids had to lower their signature papers to her in a bucket and then pull it back up again.
