FC: Monday

Our first full day at camp was long. And hot. Well, this describes every day at camp, so I won't mention it again. But it was H.O.T. The kids had their first Little Dudes lesson, we visited the lake, kept busy with playing gau-gau and the playground. I was surprised that Archer and Shelly both wanted to try out the trampoline - Archer's too afraid to jump from the side of the pool into my arms but he was willing to go flying 20 feet in the air with bungees and a trampoline? Shelly was not going to be left behind in the adventure and asked to try it too, but only after we assured her that she wouldn't go too high.

Notable for Monday was the fire alarm. Sometime in the middle of the night there was a fire alarm in the lodge. Not a little smoke detector beeping, a full out industrial strength fire alarm. No fire, just the alarm. They shut it off but we heard it again twice before it was off for good. I couldn't help but think of the false alarms in the dorms in college. Thankfully the kids barely woke up!
