Since I've gone and written a blog post. Sorry about that. The past few days have been crazy getting staff members situated, and getting the locations ready for camp to start. Its been really fun getting to know the teams and interacting with them, in person, for the first time. I'm constantly amazed that I'm over here.
Today is the day when campers show up. We've got a morning of relative peace, and quiet, and then an afternoon of crazy frantic energy. So between now and next weekend life goes, "crazy-go-nuts." Hopefully I'll be able to carve out a few minutes of the day in order to keep blogging.
Yesterday we had a chance to go to Strassbourg, a city on the French side of the Rhine, in Alsace, take a boat tour on the canals there, and then walk around the city for a couple of hours. I'm constantly amazed at the beauty of Baden and Alsace, and how great the people (overall) are here. Strassbourg is a really neat city - the cathedral is absolutely gorgeous, as is the other older architecture. The cafe's were overpriced (welcome to a touristy city in France...), but the atmostphere was nice. It was nice to be able to watch Le Tour de France on a flatscreen TV while sipping a drink and chatting.
So... I've got to get off. Its time to finish prepping for the kids to get here.
