Year 9 Camp :)

So, I've returned from Year 9 Camp 2011. We spent 3 Days down in Morriset, starting on Wednesday 2nd November and ending on Friday 4th November. Up at camp we did various activities, most of which were a fair few metres off the ground, like around 10-15 metres. So yeah, pretty high.
So after a fairly short bus rides of about 1 hour and 45 minutes we arrived at Morriset. It was about 10 in the morning by now and we had a meeting, were introduced to our instructors and put into our activity groups. We settled into cabins and then went off to our first activity.
The Leap of Faith.
Can I start with one descriptive word, high, really really really, high. Attached to a couple of ropes and a harness, you climb up a 12 metre pole and simply jump off the top. Yes, I know, it sounds easy, but you'd tell me when you were up there, that is NOT easy. But it is fun.
Then we did the high ropes and that was fun, but I don't wanna say the specifics of every activity because - that's boring.
That night we had one of the highlights of camp. Commando. This is a game where students need to get away from teachers to reach hostages, the hard part. Not getting caught by a teacher. I swear, when they say they're marking your test they are actually coming up with a game plan for commando. They probably live for these kinds of things. But hey, the students still won :)
Then we did actually go to sleep, well my cabin did at least ... Next morning we really geared up for a long day. Just as my groups luck would have it. We had all the water activities in one day, the one day on camp that it rained. As I said, just our luck.
On the second day our group faced the mud world challenge. Which really is what it sounds like. There is the course or "world" of mud, and you spend plenty of time in the mud. The challenge part? Yeah that would be getting the mud out of your hair ...
That night we had another highlight - cross dress disco. Now I could say, there's limits - don't get too into it. But our year, the boys in our year. Know no limits. At all.
I'd explain, but you'd be just as scarred as I now am .... Seriously.
Okay so once again. my cabin went to sleep that night. Another morning, and more activities. Last day of camp. And so we head off to the Giant Swing. Once again this is a swing, but it is giant. 15 metres high to be exact. Yeah it's high, but wow is it fun !! Then we did the Super Drop, which wasn't as Super as it sounds.
Then we basically left, amazing camp, amazing memories, heaps of laughs, heaps of fun.
Even if none of them read this, I would still like to dedicate this post to our instructors, accompanying teachers, chefs at the camp and to all my friends which really made camp the awesome experience it was.
