Sunday, January 15th 2017: Brandon and Juju

Today was our day off. This morning we started off with camp-grill pancakes, which was different than normal. Some were scrambled, but delicious anyway. Our propane tank wouldn’t stop leaking, so the day got delayed, but our good friend Greg saved the day. We went to Wekiva Springs and took a nice hike and then lunch by the lake. The boys went swimming, but the water was really cold.  Everyone else relaxed and read. We swapped stories by the lake and got to know each other better. On the way back Sean surprised us by buying icecream that we were begging for! When we got back we ate the icecream, chopped some special wood from Greg, and then ventured to see a dead Cottonmouth Snake.  When we came back, Jill and Elena made delicious couscous with veggies. While Brandon and Sean cleaned, a few of us played the card game President. Reflection was next and then smores before bed!


We were all very excited for today because it was our day off and it met our expectations. We had a good balance of fun, while also relaxing before the week ahead. A lot of family stories were shared which helped us all become a little closer. The reflection we did tonight was really meaningful and everyone took it to heart. We all spoke truly and meant what they said, no one was judging anyone. Everyone is still excited and in good spirits, but we must go to bed soon because we have an early day tomorrow. We’re finally going to see the manatees that we get our #Manateam name from.
