Whoooo! camp was sososososososo much fun! Whoot! get ready to hear about my weekend.

The car ride was fun. It was just me Sarah, Kalista and Kristen just having fun. We sang songs and did funny things into the walkie talkie. We ate a whole wack of junk nd got to camp 2 and a half hours late! Yup. that was pretty much the ride. When we arrived at camp we were told to go into the "Hub" What was a Hub? The Hub was our meeting place where we could hang out and hold our worship sessions. There were two cabins attached to the hub. One was for boys and the other for girls. Our Cabin was called Kilimanjaro. The hub had a big fireplace in it and the cabins had small ones. Everything smelled like pine. The cabins looked new. There where 5 bunks in our cabing and each bunk bed had a small area seperated by a divider. Each Area had a dresser and a light switch (And the bed!) We put our things away and then played group games. They were fun. We went into the HUGE bathroom. It had nice new showers and was really nice for a camp bathroom! Anyways we went to bed around 1:30. Before we went to bed we watched the boys jump over chairs. They were crazy! Sometimes they would jump over a stack of seven chairs and then they'd jump over three chairs side by side and 3 chair ontop! It was crazy! On of the guys crashed into the chairs! Ouch!  They next morning we headed to the cafe and got hot chocolate. We had bacon and eggs for breakfast. Mmmmm! we had our worship session after and boy was it good! We praised God for a long time and then we talked about things and parised God some more! I love Sarahs church! When their church band saw we were getting into the songs they just kept playing and eventually there'd be no music and people were just singing their own words. We sang some songs for like 20 minutes! The first session was the pursuit of happiness. We talked about money and how it wouldn't bring you happiness and we talked about what happiness really is. The pastor gave us each a piece of play-doh to remind us that God is the Potter and we are the clay. After the session we ate lunch which was chicken nuggets and fries. That was good. Our group went to the highropes course. Me being terribly afraid of hieghts just watched and took pictures with Sarahs camera. After we went over to the zipline. Sarahs sister Katie whos 9 convinced me to go. It was a double zipline so two people could go at a time. I was shanking like a leaf. Katie was all excited. We got hooked up and I looked down below me. There was a huge drop. I couldn't believe that I was going to  go across the frozen lake about 80 feet above the ground on a thin wire. We were just about to go and katie said "I don't wanna go any more" I didn't end up doing the zipline. Your probly thinking "Robyn! You coward!" but however I did do something exciting. I climbed part of the icewall. The ice wall was really big and I think I climbed a quarter of it. I wasn't worried about hieght or anything it was just that it hurt so much to climb! My arms still hurt from holding on! It was fun though! We had ham and potatos and bread for supper and chocolate pie for dessert. We had our second session and did the same things except we talked about "How to change the world" Then after we could go up to the front of the hub and talk to one of the youth leaders about what was bothering us. I talked to Fiona and she prayed for me and we cried together. At the end of the service everyone was crying and hugging and singing. it was amazing. After we played capture the flag except it was capture the yeti! (Aka a plastic gorilla and a rubber rat!) Anyways our team (Team Sunshine) won! LoL We watched the incredibles and went to bed. Our last day at medeba was sad but fun. We had our session which was fun and then all the girls prayed together. We had waffles and sausages for brekkie and Then packed up and went tubing. Me and Katie were going down on our tube. At the veryend of the hill if you go fast enough you go up this small bumpy hill (Kills the Bum!) Then go down into a small pot hole (OHHH! Ouch) and then go up another big hill. Now scence me and Katie were so light we went down the hill faster then anyone had seen. All the group was watching from the bottom of the hill Heres what happend. Me and katie wacked the first bump, hit the groun in the little pot hole and then flew out of the tube while going up the hill. In result I ran over katie and then whamed into someone else. That hurt! Anyways after we ate pizza for lunch and then went home! Doesn't that sound fun?
