Survival was about a month ago, though it feels like it was only a day. The hike in was vigorous and really tiring, but it was definitely worth it. When we got to campsite #1, we settled down and picked out the sites for our tents. We had no trouble putting the tent up, but when we started to settle in, we realized that there was no zipper on the tent. It stank. Flies swarmed our tent, and daddy long legs swooped down on us, but the experience was essentially perfect. Well, other than the toilets (*ugh*). We all got facials, even the boys. Speaking of boys, the guys in my homeroom had a wonderful time preparing our skits. The skits were funny, although some got a little rough. They ranged from Jeopardy!: Survival Edition to the “Serial Killer of Round Valley.” We all had a wonderful experience, and I can’t wait until the spring when we go back for a day-long canoe trip. It’ll be so fun!
