Sarah Goes to Camp

Today we brought Sarah to a summer camp where she'll spend the next week. The camp is in Norfolk, about an hour's drive away.

We met several counselors. One gave us a tour, starting in the commons area, where Sarah and the others will spend much of their time:



On the way to the residence hall, we passed the swimming pool, football and cricket pitches, shooting range, and rooms for arts and crafts, even seeing the stable where two donkeys are kept. Sarah's residence hall can house just over a hundred kids.



We brought Sarah's luggage up to her room, which she'll share with about four other girls of a similar age.



We parted ways in the commons after Sarah had meet her counselor. She seemed both a bit scared to leave us, yet eager to, at the same time.

She's never spent so much time away from us. We know she was a bit scared at first, but when we pick her up next weekend we're certain she won't want to leave.
