Island, which is located at the Gulf of Mexico. For some of us, it was another
visit to the ocean but there were some people who saw and touched the ocean
for the first time. It was exciting and very adventurous for everyone.
Unfortunately the beach time was cut short, due to us getting an eviction
notice. Mike, the man who evicted us, ended up being a part of hurricane
Katrina and was able to share his story and experiences with everyone before
we left the beach. One the way back to Camp Christian, we had more bus
troubles. Everyone was tired, hungry and some were still in their swim suits,
so not everyone was happy. The bus broke down once for about a half hour, and
then again a few minutes later for around an hour or two. Everyone ended up
getting shuttled back in a rented van back to camp. We all were very hungry
and were pleased to see spaghetti on the table. After supper, everyone had a
shower and came back feeling clean and happier for devotions. We then
celebrated Jared's birthday with a rice krispie football cake.
