The final day of camp. Everyone was in a good mood until we found out that it was pancakes again for breakfast! As it was raining, all the kids from Fuoco, Caypinar and Walkers stayed in the T building to wait for their parents. The girls were happy to sit there with the others whilst we concentrated on cleaning the dorm.
First to leave was Justine followed closely by Marlin. Due to the bad weather, her 16th birthday party had had to be cancelled. We all knew but her mum wanted to tell her herself and she was very upset. We got a nice tip from Justines family which wasn't expected and waved them off. Kellsey left and mum was really happy as her skin looked fairly good but I don't think Kellsey really cared about leaving, can't say I felt any different. Gabi's mum made Louise cry by saying that she was glad Gabi was coming home so happy and gave her a T shirt with "BOOM BOOM POW" written on it in graffiti. Very appropriate.
Katelyns face when she saw her mum was a picture and we heard a lot more of her "language". She kept running off then coming back as if to check that her mum was still there! Allison gave me a big hug that squeezed the life out of me when she left. Taysia didn't seem bothered about leaving either.
And then there was Tyler Marie. Chris, her mum, came and was happy to see her. Tyler screamed a lot and laughed. There was a photo and goodbye session with her. There were so many people who wanted to say goodbye to her that Chris was nearly in tears too. Me and Stuart cried as we watched her leave. She even said goodbye without being prompted.
Nicole and Katie were the last ones left and stayed for lunch with us. Katie left afterwards and Nicole went up to the Nurses station whilst we finished clearing up. She left an hour later with her dad.
We all hung around ages for the meeting and waved Natalie off in her taxi. We (Sean, Pia, Ilmer, Lauren, Jordi, Sheaugh and Jerry) went for one last trip to Wendys before walking back to the graveyard via the liquor store. We sat in a corner of the grave yard away from any head stones and chatted about the summer. It poured with rain so we went back to the dining hall and dried off before going to the rec hall to watch Slumdog Millionaire. We walked in on Jason and Ciara asleep on the sofa together. We couldn't stop laughing as it was the last thing we expected to see! Before we fell asleep, we went back to the T building and chatted more with the others that were there. I stayed up until 3AM with Theo watching movies and talking. He then went to bed so that we could get up for his 5AM pick up to get to Vegas. Why he went so early, I have no idea! But I think I found a different side to him before he left.
