Willie Wonka and the Flying School Bus

August 8, 2014Leave a Comment

We woke up to a loud throbbing sound in the air. A quick look out the window confirmed that the day had finally arrived: a helicopter had arrived, and we would all get to go for a joyride!

It’s really cool to go up a couple thousand feet in the air! You can see for miles around, and during take-off and landing you get to see the whole camp from a birds eye view – literally!

After getting off the helicopters, we went straight to the lake for our next mode of transport: Jet-skis. Racing around the lake at top speed, hanging onto the driver for dear life! Nothing like an adrenaline rush to start the day!

After expriencing air and sea transport, we had to round off the day with a representative of land, so we had a major car wash. Those who have been following how things work ’round here can already guess that the cars were not the only things to get wet; with a slight sense of dÈj‡ vu, we jumped straight in and made sure to super-soak each other to the bone!
