El Mariachi's = good times!

The kids left two days ago; it was a bizarre feeling. I was actually somewhat sad to see some of the kids leave, cos I had grown attached to a few of them, but also thoroughly relieved too!!! Sunday night was the massive inter-session Hawaiian themed party at New Milford's premier (and only) bar, El Mariachi's. The drinks were flowing freely and it got pretty messy but it was an awesome night. Basically every staff member from camp was there and it was all lovin'.

The next day was a half-day off with a wicked special staff dinner, where we ate 'real' food and then back to work once more, sorting out stuff in the cabins. Today has been spent carrying campers' bags and unpacking all their stuff. Yes, that's right, the counselors have to unpack and pack for the kids. We're definitely not getting paid enough for that junk!

Unfortunately this fairly lazy afternoon will be rudely interupted by having to rehearse for the arrival night's counselor show - where we basically get up on stage and make complete idiots of ourselves - and the kids arriving tomorrow for yet another three and a half weeks of screaming children. The break is NOWHERE near long enough, but I guess we all just have to suck it up and do it. It'll fly by I'm sure, just as the first session has, and before I know it I'll be on a giant holiday. Woot woot!

I'm going to see if there's any way I can post photos although I think it'll be difficult considering tomorrow morning starts another round of essentially being 'on call' 24 hours a day. Drainer!
Don't get me wrong though, I'm having a great time...I've met some friends that I'll have for life and I'm so grateful.

See you bye.
