Disclaimer -- it's a Teen Paddle tradition to tell the story of our week through a creative writing lens. These blogs reflect the paddlers' uniqueness, creativity, and fondness for "Mafia," a sneaky camp storytelling game where people "die," doctor's "heal," and paddlers have to try to solve a crime through creative storytelling.  No one REALLY died, nor would any paddlers want the others "dead." (A few of the paddlers worried about what their parents might think when they read the blog -- and to be honest -- so did the adult facilitators).

Skibidi Day 2

​Thus, it is Day 2. Groggily, we awake to the awe-inspiring dawn. The crew of the Riptide led by Captain Demi cooked us a tidy grog and bilge breakfast. And off we set, having to bear up and face the sun. And suddenly, shiver me timbers! Man overboard! Issac and Lucas’ kayak have capsized! We immediately turned around to rescue our men. Back on our journey we started. For the next few hours to come, our ships were filled with joyous cacophony. Sweat beading down our forehead, our paddling filled with passion, we encountered marvelous wildlife; beautiful bald eagles, vibrant cardinals, and wild rice fields, we continued our journey.  We paddled through traitorous tides and cracked on until we saw the beautiful bridge, our savior. We docked our trusty ships and were packed into a bus, set footloose on our campgrounds, and were cooked a tidy, delicious dinner by Isaac, Michelle and Lydia. The slop they thrust towards our faces could make even Davey Jones gag. The Pineapple Punisher team could clearly make much better food than the Dragonflies.
