On the third day, the theme of Geography is Human-Environment Interaction because of what we humans had to do, or adapt to, due to the weather. It was pouring, and so we had to put on rain gear and try to stay dry. Sadly, the raingear barely worked, it was pouring so hard. We started by getting on the bus. It was a very rainy day; cold, wet, and gloomy. We sung as we passed the two men standing outside the shops and waved to them. Then, finally, we arrived at AMC Lodge. We started by doing a scavenger hunt, where we had to use compasses to find our clues. The clues all led us to an old, broken down car perched on top of an old skiing hill. We had our snack there. For me, it was goldfish, that quickly became soggy. By that time, we had given up on our rainjackets, which barely seemed to be working.

When we got back, it was time for lunch. We ate near a pond that was infected with parasites. I had a sandwich, energy balls, popcorn, and strawberries for lunch. After that, we played some games, because it had stopped raining. Some of the games were: blindfolded "find the bandana", throwing the hula hoop, and tag. Nick, of course, threw the hula hoop into the pond. The pond that was infected with parasites. Yeah. After, we went on a nature trail where we played by a river for about an hour. Then, we went back on the bus, and left Cardigan for good.
