The First Day At Cardigan

September 29

Cardigan is an example of Human Environment Interaction because people made the AMC lodge, and there are camping areas along the trails to the top of the mountain.

When we got there, The AMC staff met us when we were in the parking lot, getting our luggage out of the trailer. Before we went inside to our rooms, we played games like “Captain’s Coming” and “Ultimate Rock Paper Scissors”. There was so much noise! After all that excitement, our stomachs began to rumble.

One of the staff members would be our guide, so when I met up with my group, she introdused herself to us, saying her name was Emily. asked us what our group name should be called. We were “Adventurers’ Boots” and she was “Captain Boots”. On the trail, and took us deep into the woods where more trails came together. This also has to do with H-E-I because we left footsteps on the trail. Also, the trail was man-made. We saw so many animals like slugs and snakes and cool trees with crimson leaves, and I sketched as many things in my sketch book as I could. We even caught a frog!

After the hike, we had an hour to do whatever we want. I changed out of my hiking gear and played football with my friends first half of break, and Apples to Apples the second half. We had a spaghetti dinner that night, and we had to play trivia about how deep a sea otter can go underwater to get dessert. It got dark, and a shooting star blazed across the sky! Our geography! teacher told us a legend about Blackbeard, and we went to bed.
