Sports Day!!!

Hello everyone,

Here in France I had an awsome day at school. The entire school got together to play sports pretty much all day for some sort of friendly competition. Our class was our team and each student was chosen to be in one of many activities...somehow I got stuck in Course D'Orientation, the only activity I should say that I can't really say should be considered a sport. So basically there is a group of four to six people from your class who have to do a couple things. The first part of the activity was like a scavanger hunt where you had three maps and went around the school looking for different hints to words that ended up being some sort of phrase. the second was locating more objects using a compass and directions like a treasure hunt. And I cant say they werent fun because they were but I am wondering how its a sport...Anyway the last activity was the most different; So the teacher brought our group out to the forest and then gave one person a compass and longitude and latitude of the school and where you were. Then the teacher left and expected you to find your way back to the school on your own with just those two things. All I have to say about this was that it was interesting and rather entertaining to try to go in the same direction when everyone thought it was a different way. Anyway ahile I was stuck in the forest all day the other kids inmy class played normal sports like soccer and basketball. At the end of the day We all met back in the gymnasium and after the results my class got Fourth place which I have to say isnt bad. Anyway interesting and fun day=)
