Camp Interlaken Jcc - 8/6/21 A lot of time has past since my Interlaken days, but the memories stay locked in my head.

Camp Interlaken Jcc

(1 review)

*Part 3 Of 3* 8/18/21…read more The last week of Summer Camp I did mountain climbing (yes, I had to call my parents again in order to do it) and had a blast. There were a few other road trips but I don't  really remember them. Hold on, I remember one now.  I don't remember where we were driving to, but we stopped by a large river with a good current.   I remember hearing the sounds of river having calming effect on me. There were some people kayaking in the water and it looked like a lot of fun. We did not stay there long, but it was fun while we were there. On the last day (unless you were at the came for two months)  there was a five mile race or so it seemed. I had a blast on walking the full five miles. I started by myself, but ended up hanging out with male friend half way though the race/walk. Somewhere along the way,  Zenobia and a few other ladies joined us.  Zenobia is the first and only Caucasian female I have ever met with that name. It is probably why I still remember her name to this day. I wonder how she is doing? I remember us talking about movies with sad endings. The movie Thelma and Louise came up. I couldn't  remember the movie entirely, so one of the women gave us a rundown on the movie.  It was one of the most enjoyable moments I had that summer. I also remember picking up a movie copy from Blockbuster (yes, they where everywhere at one point) and watching the movie when I got home from camp.   When the race/walk came to an end, the campers who were there for only one month met their parents.  By the time I came home, I was ready to get my cast taken off. When I saw what my leg looked like. It was very light compared to the rest of my body.  The scary part of it all was the bottom of my foot and chalky white leg. The Cracked skin was everywhere on the bottom of my foot.   It took two weeks for me to heal my foot and leg with lotion. After two weeks my foot and leg looked normal. It has never been that bad since dealing with a cast. As time passed from my Camp Interlaken experience,  I remember a staff member  talking about his county in Ghana. I remember him talking about how women in his country widened their earlobes.  The also wore weights so the earlobe would sag. The longer the sagging the more beautiful they were to him.  I remember him saying he didn't see the women in the places he's traveled as attractive as his country women.  Many women of  Camp Interlaken did not see elongated earlobes as stylish and would not be doing that. I remember hearing one woman say that. I smile now as I have seen people of all ethnicities doing the ear stretching.  I haven't seen  it as much now, but it is still popular...maybe as popular as....*A* bleaching is, but that is a different  different review all together. Camp Interlaken is a wonderful place, and I will always remember the good times I had. Side note: The Glow Dogs I once owned was given to a girlfriend.   Bad idea, but she was my first girlfriend at the time.  The Glow Dog was nice while I had it. In the dark hallways of my high school called The Gow School, there were times my Glow Dog was the only thing they could see of me in the dark hallways...spooky.
