 Everyone at camp
At first, when mom and dad talked to me about going to Croatian camp at Severin I thought it would be okay but when I actually got there, I did not want to stay!! I felt nervous because I only knew three people, Debi , Tea and Petra. It was all in Croatian. Only a few of the girls spoke some English. I was glad that my room counselor, Beka, spoke English really well. She is also an MK and her dad is Croatian and her mom is from England.
At camp I played ping pong and volleyball, did archery, climbed on the rock climbing wall and tried to go swimming but the water was freezing! My favorite sport was archery. I had a Bible group and Beka was my leader. She translated the Bible verses for me and told me what to do. I learned a Croatian song and met some girls. The food was great.
I listened and watched the skits at night but I didn’t understand what
they were talking about. The main character was Professor Tutu. He
was the camp leader and a pastor from Split. The two funniest parts of
the skit were when Beka was a mummy and Professor Tutu was baking and
using her as a table. He accidentally cracked an egg on her head and
then spilled flour on her. The other part was when a leader named Ana
had just gotten a package full of make-up and Professor Tutu used a lot
of the make up and scribbled all over her face! Then he tried to make
a facial mask by putting shaving cream on a paper plate and then
smearing it on her face!
At the end of camp I was glad I went. Some of it was fun, some of it was terrible and lots of the time I was confused!
