A Week in a Strange Place by Jack Paulin
Yeah nah, the first week of keeners so far has been one of the best weeks of my life and I have had more fun than ever before. The first two days were kind of just warm up days and getting back into the swing of things and what not but from wednesday onwards it has been all go. The champions so far for the three competitions have been strongly overpowered by the kiwis! With the one and only Hampsta Mackay taking out the race day and the infamous Otis Rayner easily winning the great red ribbon for Big Water Beatdown Bacon Thursday with a nasty beatdown in the puppy chow hole after colliseum rapid and then today i took out the freestyle comp with Hampsta coming in close second. I am currently rooming with the man himself Otis Rayner in the best cabin of all, the white house. An activity that we frequently take part in is our nightly foosball match, where myself and B-rook are still unbeaten against Hunky Hank and Oti. Something that I also find strange about this wonderful place is the wildlife. We have encountered snakes, all sorts of bugs and even a bear or two and a couple few deer here and there. The strangest of all animals we have encountered is a Rhino, AKA Ryyyyaaannnnnnn Jeeennnnkikkkkkkiiiiiinnnns. All in all the camps is going great, the coaches are awesome and so helpful and Anna is the best camp mum there is. A special thanks to my loving parents meg and kev for helping me get here and helping me chop and sell all the firewood for it too.
