Sissy is Home from Camp!!!! Whoa what a LONG week!

Sissy is finally home from school camp - they spent a week in Yarinhapini - WHERE? I don't really know. It was a 5 hour drive north from here. Sand, Surf, Sun, Snakes, and 120 8th graders!!!! Sounds like F U N!!!! Everyone is happy to be back on schedule and Sissy is happy to be home sleeping in her own bed. Her English assignment was to write a poem about camp: In HER own words!!!

My Camp Poem

I Awoke at the crack of dawn

To board my sleek and glossy chariot

My bag was so heavy to carry, you had to be brawny

My leaders name was NOT Harriet,

My group was quite wonderful,

My friends were so helpful,

The food was so fulfilling,

The showers were useful,

Although, some didn't use as often as they should've

The dorms were small,

And not kept as clean as they could've

Some missed the mall,

the rainforest was small,

but the trees were tall

Never have I encountered a snake,

But apparently Mr. Lee has.

I really enjoyed the chocolate cake

No cake I have encountered surpassed.
