Summer Camp Chiclana, Spain

7th July 2017

DAY 5

Today in Spanish camp we took advantage of the facilities and had an on-site bread-making lesson. Students learned how to identify ingredients in Spanish, kneaded their own dough, and ate their finished products. While they waited for the breads to bake, they took a tour of the farm and learned the names of the resident animals at Complejo Campano.

At "La Barrosa" beach, the surfers got used to the strong waves, the weather was ideal for surfing, all of them had the chance again to catch more than few waves. This weekend they will have a rest to start again strong on Monday.

Indoboarding was on the Adventure program. Kids got the chance to balance themselves on a plank that was set on a tube. after enjoying a fresh fruit snack, we took a boat that took us to a new beach. While there we played with some crabs before heading over to the dunes for some cardio-intensive races. At the dunes we were also able to do Sandboarding, followed with some body boarding on the beach.

Today was WaterOlympics and kids made a splash by the poolside with a series of water-based challenges. They had to catapult sponges, toss water balloons, fill buckets with soaked t-shirts, and go underwater to scavenge for a mystery item. We closed out the evening with Bowling for the Yellows and Blues and Street Night for the Blues. We had pizza at the bowling alley, occupied several lanes with very excited campers, and closed it out with a bit of arcade fun. Street Night called for the older kids to show off their creative sides, with spray painted murals and lively music being the order of the evening.

Tomorrow we are going in an excursion to Cádiz!
