Walk like an Egyption

Day 2 of CGL...we are off to Egypt come along, if you dare.....
Gramma Luvlee has a dark side to her. She likes to scare little children! Well she likes to scare anyone but she'll take what she can get. Every CGL has a scary day this year it was in Egypt because what isn't scary about a dead Cleopatra, a mummy looking for his stolen heart and the Faro?! We started the day off with a treasure hunt looking for the mummies stolen heart. It was supposed to be only a mild scare used to scare the little kids enough that they would not want to come to the night treasure hunt that would scare your Mama! This worked for most kids but not Jett, he braved both treasure hunts. Only 4 of the ten campers did not make it through the first "haunted house" hunt (two of those did not even make it through the first door). Jett using the map to show us were to go. After the treasure hunt we put on some Egyptian garb & Merrill taught us about mummies.
The hunt that night was for "adults" only (kids over 8ish & Jett). There are no pictures because it was at night. It made Merrill scream like a girl and Jett was so scared he had to go sit in the car with Papa (I won't tell you how I behaved but it wasn't pretty!). We'll Gramma you accomplished what you set out to do....
We enjoyed our stay in the land of pyramids but we must be off tomorrow we go back in time to the land of Dinosaurs!
