Orange Frizzante

This weekend will be the closest I've ever gotten to having a whirlwind adventure.

Zooey (with her strange and infinite connections) has gotten us into an overnight weekend Aboriginal camp at the Toronto Zoo.

Neither of us are Aboriginal. So we'll stick out like sore thumbs. Which is making us nervous. But it should be oodles of fun, and interesting too. Story telling by elders, sunrise ceremonies, and things like drum learning and plants in medicine.

We have to be there by 3 this afternoon. We heard about this last night. Talk about last minute.

The only thing I object to in the itinerary is having to take a walk in the Canada area of the zoo at 7 in the morning tomorrow. Canada is one gigantor hill. Giant hill and thats it. 7 in the morning? No thank you. But we'll do it.

I'm not a spontaneous person. Never have been, but quickly saying yes to things like this without thinking can be fun. Otherwise I overthink it, back out, and miss out on a once in a lifetime opportunity such as this one.

Plus we get to make smores! :D Last time my friends and I went camping the smores were an epic failure. Of monumental proportions.

So I've packed some sweaters, flashlights, bugspray, and books, and I'm ready for the weekend!

PS. Also packed sunscreen. I'll be the only one there that can sunburn. Even Zooey won't, she's half black.
