Last night was the overnight, which started off being cancelled due to the weather but was put back on againn when it stopped looking threatening. it took about an hour or two to start the fire but thanks to Becca, one of our counsellors-in-training, we finally got it going. I had the most awesome dinner (photo below: a mix of cut up potato, carrot, meat, bread, onions, seasoning and mayonaise) and lots of s'mores.
we also watched a very dramatic heat-lightning storm in the distance. brilliant orange lightning which was incredibly beautiful.
Jodi and Allison also organised an awesome staff perk the other night and got some coordinators to mind our campers at about 9pm and we all went down to the dining hall lounge and just hung out with chips and dip and dunkin donuts. yes, had my first dunkin donut which was pretty good. i just went with chocolate but i think i will have to branch out even more at some point :D
starting a list of things to do/try/see whilst i'm in the US also so i'll update you with how i go as i go about it. one of my favourites/funniest things i've seen on my list so far is: "- seeing an obese cop waddling out of Dunkin Donuts with a box full of donuts and a large coffee..." so stereotypically american-movie-cop ha. i thought it was amusing, anyway.
i also finally bought myself some stamps and envelopes so if you live in the fair wide land of Aus. then you may be graced with the arrival of a letter from me (if i can write some).
