Sand Dunes

When I went to Hayo-Went-Ha the Pathfinders (my age group) went on a trip to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes! I was really excited. Until I found out that I was sharing a very small tent with 4 people! We were cramped. We could barley move let alone put all our stuff away. Also they have this rule call "No trace" I hated it. Because that meant we hade to eat every last thing on out plate. We if we didn't like we still had to eat it. Now we had to eat outside and if we dropped some food, guess who ate it? We did even if it got all covered in dirt and rocks and mud. We still had to eat it. (Gross) On the first night we had a campfire and had smores! Yum. The second day. We had to get ready to hike the sand dunes. First we had to Walk there and it was about 1/2 a mile to get there. The only thing we could pack for lunch was a sandwich. We had to hike 28 dunes, there and back! One kid fainted. I almost fainted. But not quite. But the fun thing was that when we got there we got to swim in lake Michigan. Then it was time to leave. The funny thing was that the walk back seemed quicker that the walk there. On the last sand dune until we could get back to the campsite we all ran down it. The one thing that made me mad was that they didn't give us any snacks expect for tiny baby carrots! When we got to the campsite they gave us apples and wheat thins. For dessert we got... Ice Cream!!! It was such a good treat. They even gave people 5th serving. But they were about as big as you eyeball! The next day we left to go back to camp! We ate lunch right after we got back. Yum.
