Tuesday morning, what can I do sitting down? Oh yeah - paint some signs. Well actually today I re-painted the Risk board. This is a game that all the campers love that most of the international staff have never heard of. It involves armies of soldiers & world domination. Hence the reason all the boys love it. It’s a real board game but years ago someone painted up a big version of it & it was looking very tired so I spent the day (listening to my ipod) re-doing it.
All the Aussies here think it’s really funny that New Zealand isn’t even on the board.
The hand made version is done so that the U.S. is massive in proportion to the rest of the world.
Obviously it was originally done by an American.
After watching the boys play a bit of soccer (which was meant to be the Americans against the rest of the world) I stayed in while most of the others pubbed it again. But it was a good way to get to know a few more people - Jenny who is from Scotland (& who is one of the friendliest, happiest, loveliest people I have ever met) & Matt, Hanno & Sam who are some of the young counsellors (& ex campers).
