We visited the Youth Camp - Ian's 1st campfire

Daddy had 1 more day of child care lve to clear so suggested to visit the youth camp but he couldn't take whole day off so mama brought Ian to Ikea to play in the am and he joined us during lunch then we made our way to the far west to Sarumbun Scouts Camp and by the time Ian woke up nap, it was just nice for us to be there for Valley of Adventure - sth we wanted Ian to experience since he's gonna be a youth some day and will go army eventually so he saw how the youths go down the 'milo pond' (which was like a muddy pool that doesn't look appealing like milo) and many youths were asking if Ian wanna have milo hhaaaa quite a gd experience for Ian to check out esp he doesn't like getting dirty and then we saw some of them going thru 9 tyres and he wanted to see Auntie Lorraine going thru it and she did it , many were cajoling Ian to go thru them as he's small enough to crawl thru them fast....hhhmm a few more yrs huh
Here's Ian at dinner time and he had the experience of bringing ur own plate to get ur 'rationed' food and was most happy to be sitting between Jiu2 and Auntie Lorraine while he had his subway dinner which we had packed in



And this boy who just enjoyed queuing to get the portion of the food, he volunteered to do it for Uncle Winston and here's him coming back with his plate of food (tho we were asking to be careful as he walks back as it looked if he were gonna spill the whole plate of food =p)




And then it was campfire time, he was most excited to see the fire lit but yet at the same time was a bit worried the fire might get to him but soon he was warmed up with all the songs and cheers and he even enjoyed some of the funny songs which were being taught and he even participated with all the other youths at the campfire doing dances as well



Coming back home he still rems the words of some of the dances like 'As we walk' and 'to the side, the side, the side' and was asking when we could visit a campfire again...guess all his fears were dispelled with all the fun he enjoyed at the camp. We then went to watch the talentnite which Ian got a front seat and he thoroughly enjoyed himself tho on the way home, he was saying which portion he was frightened as some of the boys were 'fighting' (pretending) but he enjoyed himself as if he were watching some shows hehhee just glad we made it for the youth camp coz it was an eye opener for this boy (since he's of the age to enjoy some of these fun and he could identify with some of the gor2 and jie2s and of coz his fav jiu2 and Auntie Lorraine were there as well@!)
