The Great Ohio Adventure - Summer Camp Reunion

Ok so who said driving to Ohio was a good idea! Ok, so everybody tried to warn me that it was a really bad idea. But did I listen? Oh no! It is only just over 9 hours driving - no problem. How wrong was I! As at this point I had no car (quite an important thing to have on a road trip) I rented a car. I opted for the compact vehicle but unfortunately when I went to pick it up they did not have one so they gave me a free upgrade! YEAH! This is the lovely beast I got to drive a Grand Jeep Cherokee and she was mighty fine and I loved her and I didn't want to give her back!




Back to the trip.. So I set off from Greensboro at 1.30pm (I had a lunch time school meeting prior to this so I could not set off any earlier). The trip started off well. However, got into Ohio and Columbus proved to be a nightmare - especially as it was dark and I had no idea where I was going. To cut a very long story short, I ended up arriving at Julie V's house (camp director) at 1.50AM! Thankfully they were all still up (in fact we did not go to bed until 4am in the morning) and the whole weekend was fab.


This is a photo of some of us. The event went on from Friday through till Sunday. It was great seeing everyone there. Unfortunately not everyone could be there but I got to catch up with some great friends. On Sunday I started out at about 11am and yes I got back at 12am! I was given different directions which were easier. However it took me a bit out of my way. I cant count the amount of times people said "I love your accent". I also got someone saying that I sounded just like Harry Potter!
