'Steve Fenton Wells, age of the speed limit, seen here cruising Cadallac style, taking everything that the scenery had to offer!' Martin kept on shouting the whole way long during our first mountain biking morning exercises. The next day, I tried to remember the whole sentence by heart but Martin didn't go with us cycling. Too bad... :)
Yesterday, I met one of the most wise people ever - dr. Roswitha Stolz. We had a lecture (more like a discussion) on problems that the environment is facing. She was the first person to explain to me why exactly is the Arctic region hit the most by Global Warming, why did the Americans paint rocks next to one of their glaciers, how much do we affect our Planet and why should we be concerned about the Climate Change. I felt so impressed by her knowledge, and she was speaking in a such interesting way! The lucky selected ones will carry out some research with her during the Expedition to Nunavut and enrich an information base on the ecosystem of this part of Canada. We tried some simple research methods and even estimated the fragility of one of the tools. So cool it was!
In the evening, we had a lot of fun, we were laughing all the time, watching our own videos created during the camp (theme: sustainability) and some older ones ('Where I am? It's not my time!' 'You died, you didn't recycle!'). The Moose kuts were an icing on the cake and so after we could just go to sleep, which was pretty difficult as they proclaimed teams for today's raid!
Yesterday some of the elders Young Explorers left Chateau d'Oex. I just wanted to thank you guys for coming, getting to know you was a real honor, thank you for the inspiration you are and all the tips we got. I hope to meet you again!
But for today, wish us all good luck! We are going to have FUUUUUUUN!
