Schwerine

Hello from Schwerine,
Well we have finally started working at a camp that is not training, and the first daz went pretty well. This camp is sort of funny, and disorganized compared to the paradise camp of SLC at home. So it will take some getting used to, but the kids are awesome, and we are having lots of fun.
We ended up getting placed at a bunch of different places, instead of working in Berlin. We are doing a camp this week in Schwerine, which is about 2 hours north of Berlin, and next week we will be working a horse riding camp at the Baltic sea. It will be my first experience at the ocean, and I am looking forward to it!
We finish this camp on Friday, and because we are working at the Baltic sea, our boss will pay for our trip there, and we will spend the weekend there on the beach vacationing a little. We are planning on spending weekends in the Baltic sea, Poland, Prague, and we ended up having 2 weeks off so we want to go to Italy, France, and then we are hoping to work a week in Austria, or else we will have another week off to explore Europe, and hopefully get to switzerland to the mountains!!!
We will spend 2 weeks at camps in Hannover, and then back to Schwerine for one more week. It was nice to finally get a little bit of direction so that we can start planning.
So we're safe and sound, sleeping in tents this week. The camp is half day camp and half overnight camp. We are only working the day camp and there are 16 kids who sleep over and a girl who comes in for the nights so we can head to town.
Last night we watched the France Italy game, and the night before we watched the Germany Portugal game in Berlin. The city WAS CRAZY!!!! It was awesome to just go anywhere and people were cheering and chanting for Deutchland!!!
We have met up with a few other counselors who are pretty cool. Jussie and I especially get along with this one Canadian guy and a guy from Manchester. We only get to work one week with each of them as we were switched from the Berlin camps, but it will still be fun, and we will meet up with them in Prague and Poland hopefully.
Sooo..this is where we're at now...still no pictures as I have forgotten
