Day 43.....Whoever invented camp sleep is a genius!!

For those of you not in the know, camp sleep is a marvellous invention that the camp has been allowed this session. Its logic is very simple, everyone has lunch then goes to their bunks, sits or lies on their beds in complete silence and cannot move until 2.45 (roughly 2 hours later) Needless to say counsellors LOVE camp sleep, most of the kids are ok with it and some fight against it! Mine weren't all that impressed and had to be threatened with death a couple of times to make them be quiet (Im kidding!) but I got pretty much the full 2 hours and it was AWESOME!!!! We're into tech week again now which means late nights as we watch all the shows the kids are putting on and changed schedules which mean everyone just kind of wanders through the week following the person in front of them! Then these kids leave and we get new ones, in some ways its gone really quickly, especially this session, and in others I can definitely feel every day of the 6 weeks we've been here!!

In other news, (and reading through my blog I realise I use this phrase a lot!!) I have added Lexington, Kentucky to my list of places Im going when I hit the road after camp. An odd choice I know, as is the rest of the mid-section of my trip, Americans keep looking at me blankly when I say Salt Lake City and Denver after LA, San Francisco and Vegas, but that is where my bunkmate Brittany lives. She's promised to show me some southern American stuff and who can turn that down?! Plus its another state to add to my list, which is vastly diminished after the train fiasco! This unfortunately means that my habit of saying "y'all" that I've picked up from her isnt going to go away anytime soon, but I promise Ill have gotten rid of it before I get back!!

Day off is Wednesday this week, due to rehearsals and performances so only 1 more day to go yay :) No real plans I dont think, just a chilled day, fingers crossed the weather stays nice for it!! Will post again soon, love to everyone back home xxxx
