WildWood II

Ok, ok. I know I said I would write this sequel "tomorrow"...about a month ago. But, hey, tomorrow never comes!
So I'm actually early!
Oh, yeah!
So, Day 2 of WildWood. Today, group E was scheduled to do the "Challenge Course." In these woods near WildWood, they've set up a bunch of "challenges" that are supposed to strengthen teamwork, critical thinking, etc. etc. These challenges can be anything from climbing a wall of eight sheer feet to crawling through a maze. A quick explanation, and we were off!
The first challenge was the Sorcerer's Stone. It worked like this: There were a lot of stepping stones. on the farthest one, there was the "Sorcerer's Stone", a small rubber ball. We had to get through the stepping stones to the ball without touching the ground. Oh, and we could only step on certain stones randomly selected by our guide, Grayson. Oh, and we couldn't talk or the pattern would change. So, we came up with the strategy of putting leaves on the stones that were safe.
Next was The Centipede Trap. There was a giant "spiderweb" on the ground. We had to get all of our group through the web. If we touched the spiderweb five times, we had to start over. We also were pretending to be a centipede, so we had to stay in contact. Lastly, the person in the very front and the person in the very back were blindfolded.
Then, we did the challenge of Jack and the Kraken. This one took us a long time to figure out. Supposedly, Grayson was Captain Jack Sparrow, and we were his crew. Supposedly, the Kraken had destroyed our ship, and we had to all get on this "plank"-- basically a teeter-totter. So, after an hour of shouting at each other, trying, and failing, we got everybody balance on the boat. At least this one was pretty straightforward.
Then was lunch-PB&J.
Then, we did our last two challenges. Paleantology was the first. It was like the sorceror's stone, but with stumps in the ground and a toy dinosaur at the end. We could touch every log, though--no specific paths. However, the logs were so far apart that we had to use boards to cross.
The last challenge was juggling. It's that simple. We just juggled.
Then, we went back to the cabins and had supper. After that, all the groups went on the hayless hay ride! It was just that-a hay ride, but they didn't have any hay. Finally, we ended the night with some campfire songs...most of which I would have said were terrible if I was singing them anywhere else.
On the third day of WildWood, my true love gave to me- oh wait, sorry. Not quite right, there. Let's try that again.
Ahem.
After another sleepless night (without the demented dog this time,) I woke up to the third day of WildWood, also possible the best. Group E went off on a nature walk. They had some special name for it, but I forget what it was. Then, we had ALL DAY REC TIME!
Until lunch.
After lunch, we said good-bye to Grayson and the rest of the people there, then headed off into the sunset.
Or whatever.
