Becoming Famous at Sunny Hill #2

The other day, one of the local news papers stopped by to capture our camp on film! They created a short video which has been published online, and we hope you will be able to watch it. Please visit the link below, and let us know whether or not it works!

Excursion to Morokulien

Today has been all about crossing borders, as the whole camp traveled to the Norwegian-Swedish border to try out some jewlery-making!

Vivi Ann Huuse, a local artist, taught all the kids how to make jewlery from glass!

It was a little difficult, very interesting and a lot of fun!

The kids got to choose which color they wanted, blue, turquoise, orange, green, pink, purple.

It was hot around the fire, and bright too!

We got home made fish burgers and strawberry lemonade for lunch, yum!

We also got to cross the world's smallest bridge between two nations! Norway to the left, Sweden to the right.

All in all, we pretty much had a fantabulous day together!

Excursion Day

Right at this moment, the entire camp is having our first excursion day! We are on our way to the boarder with Sweden, to do some fun stuff which we will blog more about later. Now is the time for a photo-o-rama from the bus ride!

Agathe from France is wearing a sweater stating the obvious: that she has a hot Mexican friend! We all do, after meeting the Mexican delegation at Sunny Hill! Spicy group! :p

The Mexican and Italian leaders - looking smashing!

These two come from Jordan and the US, and they are having a blast by the looks of it!

Alejandra from Spain and (Sha)Mecca from the US are very excited about this trip!

It is very fashionable to be wearing CISV-branded clothing while at camp. These two are the leader from France and the half Swedish JC from Spain! Yeah, it confused us in the beginning too! :)
