Camp Day 10 – Thursday July 30 (Class sessions 2 of 3)

Today was a fantastic day. It poured last night, but the sun came out for the first time in about a week (I actually enjoyed the slightly cooler weather, but sunshine was welcome, especially since we dry our laundry outside). The classes were particularly enthusiastic and attentive; Groups 2 and 5 really try hard, and know how to have fun as well).

During the afternoon nap, Sky and I went for a walk and some ice cream and came across a couple men fishing in one of the ponds. They were casting a short line into the water that seemed to be boiling in front of them. I think they had sprinkled some fish food in, and were either fly fishing or just hooking the fish randomly. The fish were small and flat; about 5 inches long; he had several dozen flopping around in the grass before he tossed them into a bag and left.

In the evening, a few of us adults went to the camp driving range. It was fun hitting balls off the top tier. Sky came along (after all, she bought the beverages!). She is really taking advantage of all the new experiences here, and having a great time. She is greatly admired by everyone at the camp, Canadian and Chinese.
