Hi!
So I just got back from a four day trip st West Minster Woods (I would put pics on here but yeah can't figure it out!)
Ok so on Tuesday I started driving to West Minster Woods witch took two hours. Then when we got there with my friend Jazz, we ate lunch with the rest of my school that was there. Then we got broken into our trail groups with our naturalists. There were Bat, Orcha and Poppy. (These aren't real names!) And I went into Poppy's group we were the oldest group. Then we learned about readwoods, then a boy kissed a Banana Slug. Then we got a tour of the camp. Then we went on a hike up to a ridge that looked into a valley. Then we had Rec. Time where we could do whatever we wanted for an hour. So me and my friend went to the Cargo Net, witch a big net connected by trees and ropes, it was so cool. Then we went to this lame tree house that was pretty much just a plank and a tree in the middle and walls and a roof. Then we went down to the "Meadow" witch was just a grassy field. Then me and jazz played frizbee. Then we had a delicious dinner of saggetti! Then we went on a night hike, witch was kinda scary since it was pitch black. We saw glow worms! They were so cool, if you foccused on them you couldn't see the light then if you didn't focuss on them you could see the light. Then Poppy said we were going to chew on moon rocks, and look into you're partners mouth. I thought "What?! Moon Rocks?!" and my partner went first and I couldn't see what she was holding. So she chewed and there were littke flashes of light in her mouth. Then I got a "Moon Rock" witch was really a mint life saver. So I chewed with my mouth open, and my friend said I had flashes of light in my mouth. Then we went to our cabins and went to bed.
The next day, everyone woke up at 7:00 am and took a nice warm shower. Then we got ready for Breakfast, witch was..... I don't remeber. Then we went to our meeting room and got told the rules of the ocean, because we were going to the ocean, in the tide pools. Then we went to our cabins and got ready to go. Then we got in our cars and drove to the ocean. When we got there every one got into groups and went on a hike untill low tide. Then we had lunch played a few games and went down to the beach. We found hermit crabs and sea anenomes. Then we went back to camp and had a camp fire. we sang these songs:
Bananna Slug
Water Cycle
We are Connected
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Respect
Wild Salmon
Humble Yourself
Yep and the we all went to our cabins and went to sleep.
The next day was the challenge course day. We got up at 7:00 am and took a shower. Then I got back and went to breakfast. Then we had to go to the challenge course. We did this path of life challenge, where you had to find the path and get out of the maze, with you're team mates helping. Then we did this other challenge where we had to get 13 people across a stream (not really) and we had these boards that were supposed to be "bolders" and we couldnt let go of them and stuff. Then we had lunch. Then we went to the high ropes course, and we did the Zip Line. I chickened out because we had to go across this tight rope to get to the zip line. Then we all had dinner and went to bed.
The next day we got up packed everything and had breakfast and then planted in a garden then left down the road to home.
I AM SO SAD I MISS WEST MINSTER WOODSSSS!!!!
Well, technically the "Rest of your school" wasn't there. But that sounds so fun! Too bad its so much money :(
ReplyDeleteTotally worth it. That lucky partner ros mentioned was me, btw.
DeleteThat was soooo fun ros! But we took warm showers? I don't think we're talking about the same trip because mine was melted snow from the top of the mountains! I ended up taking like a 1 minute shower because myl lips were turning blue.
ReplyDeleteWHATEVER. It was totally worth it. Then LIndsay got in after me and was like..'aaahhh.....nice and toasty....'
