Day Five: Mexico

July 19, 2015Leave a Comment

Hola from Mexico! Today was a non-stop fiesta. Everyone was wearing their ponchos and sombreros. The dining room was set up with a matador ring with a bull that campers could sit on. There was a piñata hanging in the middle of the room that a lucky camper got to break open and make candy rain on everyone. It was sweet. We had Mexican Slice, where campers got to make some yummy Mexican foods.

By dinner we all learned this years Camp Simcha song. It’s incredible! Later this week we’re going to learn the dance that goes along with it. Get psyched to see it!

The world famous magician and illusionist Eric Wilzig gave us a fantastic show tonight.  He escaped out of a heavily locked box like a modern day Houdini. He accidentally smashed a counselor’s iPhone after taking a selfie with it. Don’t worry though, he magically made it appear completely intact!

Buenas noches,
Moshe
