First Expedition: JJ

This expedition was fantastic. We started it out by going on a really cool canoeing trip for the first week. It was pretty easy on the first day of canoeing. However once we got to the second day it got a lot more difficult mainly because we had a lot more area to cover. However the place we stopped at was great. Every single place we stopped at was an island. The second island was really cool. The first was ok but the third was the one that I absolutely abhorred. The reason I had so much distaste towards it was mainly because it was so cramped and rainy. The rain got my sleeping bag soaked which really got me riled up. However we did have a good time while we are on that island because we did a lot of stuff such as sharks and minnows with canoes, cliff jumping and much more. Anyways so after that we left and went back to base. We only stayed at base for one day but it was fun. After we left base we went on a one week backpacking trip. We backpacked 25 miles alltogether which was a good time. While we there we ran into a bunch of cool through hikers one of which was carrying a cat on his shoulders, another was wearing a kilt, and my favorite was a guy named Smoke. Anyways overall I had a really good time and hope the next expedition was as good as this one.
