More On Week 1 Camp

Week one was so fun and yet so challenging. This was the youngest group and boy did they have a lot of energy. We were on team portocaliu, which is orange, and we had quite a group. We spent a lot of time chasing our kids around because they were always running all over when they were supposed to be doing the activities with our team. By the end of the week we just let the kids run free because we didn't have the energy left to chase them around. It was still lots of fun though.

We bonded a lot with our team of volunteers too, Kristin, Lindsey, and George.

Mark stayed in a cabin with Petrisor, Bogdan, Claudiu, Marin, & Florin during the week. He had the craziest cabin of all and on the first night the boys wouldn't go to bed. After lots of staff coming in to try to help we finally got to sleep at 1:30AM. Then the boys got up at 6:30 so Mark had to keep them busy by running around hay bails to get some of that energy out. The rest of the week was much better and we told Bible stories and scary stories before bed. The boys wanted a really scary story the last night so they got it! The best part was at the scariest point they all yelled "Ghatta!" which means "enough". Yet they still wanted to hear the end. Mark's story telling lead to widespread fame because when some people from Bucharest came the third week they were asking about the stories.
