New York, New York...
Iv literally just got back from NYC!! Came back slightly earlier so we could get ready for camp tomorrow!! I'm on early-care so have to get up at 6am!! Soooo tired we left camp on saturday morning on the bus leaving at 7.30, and got the train from South-East station, which took about an hour and a half, arriving of the dull and dingy station into Grand Central was amazing, all gold and gleaming it looks exactly like it does on the films!! We then wondered towards our hotel, stopping to take tonnes of photos, we had went for breakfast at the Brooklyn Diner, chocolate pancakes to be American- They were like drop scones not normal ones. We then dropped our luggage at the hotel (the wonder that was the Carter- the location its its biggest plus point!!) We then wondered through times square the the Rockefella centre!!! All the way to the top!! It was amazing to see all the sights and all the famous buildings. We then wondered around the shops and the attractions near by and then went to the Hard Rock Cafe for a cocktail!! Which was AWESOME!! such great memorabilia!! We then went back to the hotel, got ready and had some food, then went out to Webster Hall, a four floor nightclub with everyone. Today was a lazy day wandering around Greenwich attempting not to spend money!! Now to get back to work!!

Rafting on the white waters...
Not much has happened since, my last blog, work on friday was the best day yet all the children are getting really chatty which is nice but they are also more cheeky!! Milkshake monster is my new favourite game!! hehe!! Learning some great games most of which are sure to become new drinking games!! (watch out pershore road!!) O and lost of songs!! again watch out!! After work on friday we headed up in the wan to the Adirondacks! It took about 4hours and we were lucky enough to already have tents put up so songs and drinks around the camp fire, then white water rafting on the Hudson on the saturday!! Soooo very good!!!! Was in a raft with all the girls Charlie, Lottie, Archery Megan, Becca, Lucy, Rachel, Catherine and me!! Sang nearly all the way down!! Almost fell in several times, lost becca, megan and are guide Cassandra on one particularly hair raising jolt!! jumped from rocks into the river, bobbed about in life jackets and went down one set of rapids swimming!! Then bbq for tea and a great night again round the camp fire!! perhaps fireworks tomorrow for 4th of July!! fingers crossed!!
