Last day of camp was nice, we got up early ate Dunkin doughnuts, helped cook the head staff breakfast had an epic camp song medley, dressed up for backwards day (Bobs summer camp tops!) and had a fabulous day. Carnival was great spent an age in the dunk tank cooling off and worked the bungee trampoline. The only downside of the day was saying bye to the rest of camp and the children.
Our travel plans have been slightly thwarted by Hurricane Irene so we have been hiding out in a classroom for two days but alls well and it passed as merely a tropical storm, so lots of rain and a wee bit of wind!! so here is to San Fran travel plans being okay!! Fingers crossed!!! eeeekkk!! :)

Sooo Much has happened!!!
Right sooooo much has happened since my last blog, I am going to have to right this in a bulleted list!!
- I got suspected lymes, and was confined to the health centre for a week, after my thigh swelled up and resembled some thing close to a balloon! I was tested numerous times at the doctors and put on antibiotics only to find out it wasn't lymes and we have no idea what it was. fingers crossed it doesn’t happen again!!!!
- I have dressed up as an octopus for pirate day, had planes in my hair for sea and air day, a union jack on my face for international day and been shark girl a villain for superhero day!! (my costumes range from being on the scale of mums and being fabulous! and thanks to Charlie for the face painting!)
- We have visited 6 flags, a theme park in New Jersey with the tallest rollercoaster in the world!! eeeekkkk!! I didn’t make that one!! though did get on about 6 of pretty good ones!!
- We have visited Boston and walked most of the freedom trail, went to mikes pastries for a muffin and a canola, brought a Harvard top, and got driven all the way there and back by Mark in a pick up, very American!! and came back via Rhode island!!
- Booked our flights to san Fran, Vegas and then from San Diego to Miami!!!- its going to be crazy!!
- We have made coil pots, tic tac toe (noughts and crosses) and people in ceramics, in session 2!! We had carnival, which was great and I worked on the bungee trampoline!! (those trampolines you get at shopping centers!)
- We are one week into the third session meaning we leave in two weeks!!! EEEeekkk!! We have swap day, in which I leave ceramic for the day and Laurie takes over and I am going into TB6 the oldest of the trailblazers groups, so the children are about 7/8! which should be fun, we also have Halloween day and backwards day!! We are making finger puppets, board games and slab pots!! :) in ceramics!!
- Yesterday I went to the thrift store in Connecticut and brought 5 t-shirts, a skirt and a belt for 7 dollars!! I am going to have a very heavy rucksack!! (One of the t-shirts happened to be a Bristol balloon festival t-shirt from 1998 which weirdly enough this week is the balloon festival!! how crazy- perhaps it is a small world after all.)
I cant think of anything else apart from its currently raining and we might go to the cinema later!! O and we had the hottest temperatures ever recorded in New York State, and have been rocked by the Massacre in Norway and the England Riots.
