Well, now for the second day of my canoe trip. Sunday morning I woke up about 6:00 or 7:00 and sat by the fire and talked with the other people who were up, mostly adults but there was one other girl up. Once breakfast was ready and there still wasn't anybody up the one other girl who was awake and I got a huge metal pan and a big metal utensil and we went down by the tents and banged as loud as we could on that pan until we woke everybody up for breakfast (with Mr Mark's permission of course). After breakfast we pushed off and started down the river. We mostly just paddled the whole day and stopped a few times and except for one stoop it was mostly uneventful. We had stopped for the last time to let everyone catch up and had eaten some fruit and were all leaving and dad and I had just pushed off when we herd this bloodcurdling scream from behind. We turned around and saw this girl leap out of her canoe, land on her feet and in about two seconds was ten feet away from her canoe and her partner was standing in his seat with his paddle ready. We asked somebody what happened and apparently there was a snake in their canoe! They finale got everything settled in their boat and continued but later on they somehow got a fish in their boat that was about five inches long. Aside from that there was nothing super exciting that day. On the way home I mostly slept because I was so tired. Well, that was the overview of the trip, if anyone wants a more specific story they can just ask me and I would be glad to oblige. This evening was the softball closing ceremony's and my team got third! I have only placed once before this after playing for six years so it was very exciting. Well, if you want to know the reason that I didn't post this sooner, a stomach virus has been going around and I was to busy on Monday and Tuesday and on Wednesday I got sick and today we had grandparents over and right now is the first chance I had to post anything. Well, that's all for now so until later, goodbye!
