Camp Day, Gush Eztion, Eretz Ayalim

Mon- Today was camp day! We got to wake up later than usual... YAY =)
We began the day by getting a paper with a hint to our "twin of the
day." Once we figured out who it was, we had the duty of getting to
know that girl really well throughout the day. First we had to dress
up creatively as a pair, for example: one group did a plug and an
outlet and another was burt and ernie. This is where everyone got so
creative. Next we played pop the baloon on your friends ankle while
being attached to your twin.... that was quite difficult! Then we
played many different races like picking up the beans with a straw
from one plate and putting them onto another. There were lots of more
contests and the last one being a game where we were asked questions
regarding our partners.... we saw who reallly got to know their
partner well... do you know how long it takes your twin to get ready
in the morning!? It was a great way to get to know more people in
camp!!

Tue- First location was Gush Etzion: we watched a movie apropo for the
nine days. It was about how the community risked their lives many a
time to keep their property. We even got to see an actual bunker that
many refuged to. Deer Land... here we come! Also known as Eretz
Ayalim, it was a ropes course in which we had a lot of fun. First
there was the rock climbing wall, some of our experienced climbers
even made it to the top of the hard part!! After that we got to go on
a obstacle course in the air; there we tires to climb and logs and
tightropes and to walk over swings to get through so by the end we got
a nice workout. The last part required the least effort but was maybe
the funnest, we got to go on the second to longest zip line in the
entire world. We got a nice thrilll while zooming over a street and
many trees and lots of land!! On the jeep ride back we all got to
reminisce over the day. After that we got to go to Malcha Mall and all
enjoyed window shopping and THE BEST DONUTS AND PASTRIES EVER!!!
Unfortunately here we had to say goodbye to our dear friend who left
us: Pearly Lapcuic... we'll miss you... mwa!
