Summer Camp Chiclana, Spain

24th July 2017

DAY 8

Today in Spanish class, students learned how to ask and give directions. They were given some brochures of Chiclana de la Frontera, where they studied how to get around the city and wrote a brief summary of their daily routines. They completed the lesson with a fun game of "Where's the bear?" Students were blindfolded and were lead by their teammates, who were asked to lead them in Spanish.

Surf camp is back at it again with great conditions. The weather got a bit warmer and the waves were the perfect size, allowing campers to make more strides in their surf technique.

Today in Adventure camp, we had an early wake up, after a 2 hours drive in the bus, we arrived to our adventure destination in the small village of Juzcar, also know as Smurf Village (pueblo de los pitufos) because of its blue painted houses. We put on our wet suits and got ready for canyoning, which is a technical descent that requires absailing down a waterfall. The campers were pushed to their limits and learned to overcome their fears as they ziplined past waterfalls. This trip defined what it means to have an adventure at Village Camps!

We finished off the night with our VC Talent Show, where the campers were able to showcase their favorite songs, dances and other performances. See you tomorrow!
