Modesto
Posted by Josh on 26 August, 2006
Well our schedule for travel has definately changed from the planned route for North America. Today we are in Modesto for our second day hanging out with Frank and Steph. We just couldn’t be bothered (American friends hate us using that phrase) travelling all the time and sight seeing so we are here for a few days before flying on a 8? passenger plane to Vegas for 3 nights. Also rather then staying in a hostel, we are staying at a Casino there, The Excalibur which is right on the strip and nice and keep to stay in for the nights we are there. Saturday night it is 200 a night, sunday it is 47 :)
So yes things are good, we went outlet shopping yesterday and i called Di and that was most of my day.
Will put up photos sometime today.

On the road again!
Posted by Josh on 22 August, 2006
Well last night we arrived in San Fran after 11 weeks in Spicer, Minnesota and i was ready to leave, but then i remembered i wasn’t ready for hostels again either. All is good, we caught up with Frank and Steph Edge and will again tomorrow before Frank gets some surgery on a hip done.
Today we biked across the golden gate bridge and through the prestigous areas to a old growth forest known for the tallest trees in the world. The map never explained how ridiculously hard it would be to ride up the hills to get there though so we are definately worse for wear.
Tomorrow we will check out Alcatraz and get in a San Francisco cable car just for some fun. Quinten Lynch kicked a bag incase you didn’t hear.

Choas Games
Posted by Josh on 17 August, 2006
Last night Caleb and I organised an activity for ‘Wet and Wild’ which was called Chaos Games. The games were ‘Paint Jousting’, ‘Army Crawl through leftovers’, ‘Jelly Skulling’, ‘Feed the baby’ and ‘Spin the broom (joe hutch style) obsticle course’. Overall it was pretty hilarious, everyone got covered in paint, jelly, custard and various other things and were running around throwing things at each other.
I don’t have any photos at the moment, but i will put them up, also my clothes are in the bin right down, i didn’t even try and wash them.
Fun and only 3 days left of camp. So ready to go i am too tired.

Cyber Games without the games
Posted by Josh on 8 August, 2006
Ok, so this week i am working with Cyber Games camp which is meant to be a camp for computer games, basically a camp for geeky people. Anyway i am a bit annoyed because in the schedule, there are 3 activity times a day and only one of them is computer games, the other ones are things like canoeing, biking or movies and stuff like that.
When i wanted to add more games to the schedule, apparently the kids would get too bored with playing games for that long. I know atleast my cabin wants more games but what can i do.
So i am frustrated at the moment, but only 2 weeks left at camp. Ya to travel and home.
