Day 4 of Camp :)

Today was a really long day of camp! It wasn't too bad, until one of the kids decided that he was going to try and run from the center, getting him back, struggling with a counselor that led her to roll her ankle, having him scream and panic for about 20 minutes at me, talking to him for a few hours to get him to calm down, and then hearing some things from him that needed to be reported...did I mention today was a tough day? It was definitely a day that I could have used a hug from Grandma or Mom...or Paul :)
We went to a hang out spot on base and met some of the local military police, which in Britain, they are called the 'Royal Military Police' or "RMP's." They were really nice and had some interesting stories to tell us. They were fascinated with the way we said the simplest phrases, like "that's weird," and "oh my goodness." It was entertaining to hear them say the phrases back to us without an accent :) It was good to get out and meet some new people on the base.
They were also all very impressed with my ability to do a British accent, saying that it sounded very 'posh.'
