Immersion Camp
“Capilla del Senor” is beautiful! It has a lot of fabulous green trees and lots of walkways.
It’s so big and I has a place called “The Hexagon,” there we played all the games because the weather didn’t help us.
The bedrooms were so comfortable. I slept with three friends: Martee Somoano, Orne Diorno and Sofi Espada. The night was totally fantastic!!!
We sang inside our room and we have a lot of fun telling different and funny anecdotes about us!
When we got up we had breakfast like people in Ireland do! We tasted most of the food and it was really delicious!
The trip was really GREAT and I hope that in the future we could repeat it!

The Weather
All this camp was cloudy, windy or raining. Yesterday when we arrived in the morning, was too cloudy, you can’t imagine. Yesterday, at night it started to be cold and rainy. At night it was cold. It was impossible to not be cold. When we finished eating it was raining. At midnight, it stopped raining. When we woke up today in the morning it was raining again. We came to eat breakfast and when we go it was not raining. The weather was crazy! The weather changed to sunny but it continued to be cold.

Games
In the immersion trip we played a lot of games with the counselors. There were 3 boys from the United States (Bobby, Jonathan, Tim). First we played a game that was called Mingle, and then we played splat. In that game we had a lot of fun, we played it like one hundred times.
There was also a girl from Ireland who was called Louise. We snag some songs with her…she sings beautifully!
Now I am anxious to see how I do my magazine with my friends. What do you think?

The Counselors
In this immersion trip we’ve had four American counselors (Bobby, Jonathon, Tim, William) and one Irish counselor (Louise). Since this camp’s theme is Celtic we asked Louise some questions:
-Give us a common Irish sport
Hurling and Gaelic football
-What do you usually eat at festivals?
Guinness and potatoes
-Do you learn any languages in school?
Irish, French, Japanese
-Can you give us an Irish festival?
Oireachtas na gaeilge
Then, to compare cultures we asked one of our American counselors (Liam):
-Give us a common American sport
Baseball
-What do you usually eat at festivals?
Corndogs
-What do children play in America?
Sports and playground games
-Do you learn any language in school?
Spanish, French
-Can you give us an American festival?
The Minnesota State Festival
I HOPE YOU LIKED IT!

Sports
In the camp the sports are very important. The teacher is called Louise. The other day we did an interview to them. We saw that they were very fast running, and after doing some activity they started moving all their body. We imagine that they were professionals. The boys complained in some things, but they do it very well. Camila Bodetto do it very well, she likes sports to much and maybe she will be an atletic person in 5 years. We say that Magali and Paula are doing a good job. Some minutes later Louise was talking about they are going to play, she said they are going play (snatch the bacon). It’s a game of Ireland, they thought it was very interesting. We asked Louise if the sports of Ireland are best than sports of Argentina. She said that sports are the same in Ireland, but they have 2 national sports which are only played in Ireland: Hurling (iomani ochf) and Quelic football (peil gaelach). Hurling is the fastest sport on grass.
