PE Log #3 July 22-31st

July 22
I went for a quick 30 walk with my parents today.

July 24
Today I went to Goose Spit with my camp group for a 2 hour kayak session. Because most of the kids have never kayaked before or had few lessons before, everyone was paired up with an adult. I actually asked if I could do the rear steering (the adults usually do this) because I knew I could navigate the kayak. It's a lot hard to have two people in the kayak because you have to coordinate your movements and plan your directions more. I had a great team mate and we had fun going far. Mum said my instructors praised my efforts today because I helped get people set up and teach them how to use the kayak peddles and paddle. I also played bocce ball with my friends.

July 25
Today we went on a walking Scavenger Hunt around 5th street where we had to find a series of things on a check list for an hour. This was not my favourite activity because it required team work in a large group of people and most people weren't sharing their ideas. *No photo taken*

We went to Parksville today for a beach day for 1.5 hours. I mostly spent time swimming but also at the playground where I helped the younger kids with the zipline and where we played games like tag. I also got to fly a kite. That takes special arm movement and technique. It was hard to fly it.

July 27
We went to a Game Farm and also went to the Escape Room callyed Crypt-Tic. In the Escape room we had to find the quickest route out of the maze as a team as quickly as possible. Locked in a room together, we had to search the space for clues and solve puzzles to escape a series of rooms within 60 minutes. It took us a while but we actually made it through as a team. *No photo taken*
By the way, the escape room was created by a high school student: http://www.comoxvalleyecho.com/news/415155944.html

July 28
I rode my bike to and from the store doing errands for 30 minutes. *No photo taken*

July 29
I went to a tech conference this weekend with my mum and we walked the floor from 11-5pm. I got to try some new activities including Sumo Wrestling, Bungee Run and Jousting.
