What Victoria didn't write



So Victoria wrote about Echo Hill and all the activities except one which was bay studies. In the class we caught many fish. We caught a Pumpkin Seed Fish, eels, Small Mouth Bass, Blue Crabs, and some others that I can't think of. The Pumpkin Seed fish had an orange belly and whitish grayish top. We also caught 3 Eels; they were slimy and disgusting. The mall Mouth Bass had a huge mouth. We caught a Blue Crab it was annoyed with us in other words it was crabby. All in all we had a great time on bay studies.

p.s. We told riddles on the way if you figure it out post it on comments. 
There were 53 bicycles  on a table and a man dead on the floor. Why was the man MURDERED. 

Echo Hill Camp

We went on a field trip with the Pool's school. We went to Echo Hill Camp. It had a 150 acer campus. We got there around  11:00 and got settled in to our cabins. Our cabins were just big tents with a hard floor. There were 3 other schools there. While we just had 8 people from Bay Montessori the other schools had 80 or 90 people that came. The bathrooms were just big Johnny blues, they were disgusting!!! Any way every day we would wake up, go to the bathroom, get dressed, and go to breakfast. In the morning we couldn't shower because it was like 20 degrees!!! After breakfast we would have a morning activity, the lunch, then an afternoon activity and dinner and night activity. When we first got there we got settled and went to lunch. after lunch we had our first class. Our first class was outdoor survival. Then we had dinner. for our night activity we had a night walk. we couldn't use flashlights and we were tripping on everything!! We went to bed on bunk beds and under bug nets. We all wore 3 sweaters and each had a sleeping bag. The next morning we went to break feast and then to our morning activity. Our morning activity was adventure 1 we got to play lots of games and got to do the adventure course. The adventure course was fun we got to try to balance our teacher and us on a big seesaw. After lunch we had adventure 2. At adventure 2 we got to go on the big swing. The big swing was 2 big wires. we all got harnesses on and got a turn swinging. We had dinner and for our night activity we had debates on a Dr.Seuss book.We went to sleep and the next morning we had breakfast and did bay studies and then we went home.
