In January we went on a field trip to Jekyll Island. I wrote some haikus to sum up the trip...

Note: All of this is 100% true. Ask anyone who went.

Jekyll Haikus

---------------------------------------------

I wake up at five

Five is way way too early

Casual grunting

---------------------------------------------

Rushing in the school

Running through the pouring rain

50 pounds of bags

---------------------------------------------

Waiting for the bus

Can they go any slower?

Scumbag bus drivers

---------------------------------------------

Now the long bus ride

Five hours and two movies

No book ideas

---------------------------------------------

FINALLY we're here

The weather's below zero

Cold cold cold cold cold

---------------------------------------------

First day-REALLY cold

Found a heater in our room

Filthy paradise

---------------------------------------------

Yes, the room is blech

Bathroom smells like something died

Everything's dirty

---------------------------------------------

Going on a hike

In the maritime forest

Found an epic tree

---------------------------------------------

Whee, climbing's fun

Chaperone gave us bay leaves

Mmm they smell so good

---------------------------------------------

Picked some more bay leaves

Crushed them in smelly bathroom

And it didn't help

---------------------------------------------

Time for dinner now

I am STARVING NOM NOM NOM

P. S. it's still cold.

---------------------------------------------

Sleeping in the bed

Luckily I got top bunk

Stupid fitted sheet!!!

---------------------------------------------

Now I'm settled in
