Second day:

We set out to the sea at eight.We were told to kayak to East coast.I love it when we were on the way there as the currents is helping us.We reached but the weather turned bad.Storm came and we saw twister.We were all surprised to see it in Singapore.The wind came and it was strong and chiiled.We went for shelter.Then we continued when the rain came to a stop awhile.We reached our destination faster than the time we taken to kayak to East Coast.We reached then the storm is coming again.We were told to reached for the shore and we packed up all the things and we had our wash up and we were given about 2 hours rest.Most of them take a nap.Me too.Then we had our dinner then our reflections then it is about the end of that day .

Third day:

My reflections:

I learnt a lot of things from this camp.Really,from teachers and teammates.I hope end-of the-year there will be one more..Even next year.and even when i leave school,i hope i will be able to come back to join this kind of expedition again..even a different one and more challenging one..Keep it up!~
