Summer Camp Ardèche, France

Sunny and fun day!

Today was a sunny and hot day in the Ardeche! The campers ate a healthy breakfast and geared up for a day full of fun filled activities.

The River Toads and Goats practiced their biking skills at camp in order to prepare themselves for a challenging mountain bike day. Packed lunch, sunscreen and lots of water??? ready to go! The campers biked through the beautiful Ardeche, while enjoying the nature, fauna and amazing views of the area. We all then had lunch at a relaxing spot where the riders were able to eat under the shade and freshen up in a natural pool. The day was full of up hills but we were all happily rewarded for the hard work with a well-deserved ice cream, yummy!

Meanwhile, the French Magpies headed off to the exotic crocodile farm in Pierrelatte, which is home to more than 350 species of this incredible animal, as well as giant tortoises. They then spent the afternoon exploring the streets of Avignon. The Magpies got to visit the incredible Palace of the Popes, one of the most important medieval Gothic buildings in Europe, which was the papal residence to six different Popes during the 14th century.

Today s evening was Movie Night! The campers watched Jack the Giant Slayer while eating popcorn and drinking some pop. We were all able to relax after a very busy and fun day. Tomorrow, more!

Phrase of the day: Practice makes perfect!
