Girls Camp Day 2

                                                           Wednesday

beginning of hike

  When I woke up I got dressed, brushed my hair, brushed my teeth ect. After everyone was done we went to flag ceremony and then went to the bathroom. We had breakfast at camp this time. So breakfast was French Toast. I choked on some bacon though. How it happened was that some of the bacon got caught in my airway so I couldn't breathe. So I spat all the bacon, but the piece in my airway. Then I stuck my hand in my throat grabbed the piece of bacon and flung it out. It was scary. After lunch Jamie braided our hair and we prepared for the hike. We split into groups again. Each of our ward groups had one of their leaders, ours was Jill. 1.3 miles into the hike mucus and stuff from my nose started running down the back of my stomach making not feel good at all. The camp nurse said it was called a congestion and the hike should help stop that, but other than that there's like nothing else that she knows of. So after a while of having to rest a lot I said a prayer. After that I felt way better. The as we later found out was the longest hike they had. We were all exhausted after that hike. Guess what, after the hike I have not had a congestion happen so the nurse was right and I'm glad. Then we had lunch which was so good and consisted of the same potato salad and also really good eclairs. After lunch we went back to camp rested, learned to baton wood, and played games. Sometime later we went back to the pavilion and made blankets for a hospital. When that was finished we got T-shirts to decorate. After the T shirts we did games like capture the flag and water balloon volleyball. At one point it was this iron rod thing where we had to hold to this string, we had to walk through it, and at some points we had to have help from the leaders like walk over a log. When we finished it we had to watch others do it. I felt the spirit doing it and watching others do it. Sorry it's to hard to describe it exactly, we were blindfold you see.  It was fun. Then we went back to camp for a bit then went to the amphitheater for flag ceremony, and destiny. When we got back to camp we roasted starbursts and made doughnuts. Then we got ready for bed, when we got in our tents. From the other tent we heard screaming. Turns out the tent had adopted a colony of ants while we were out. So they had to get all of the ants out before bed. In bed we told stories, jokes, had fun, and after a long time went to bed.
