My first time camping.

I went to Spring Camporee last weekend.
The first night there, it was raining, we hung out after pitching up tents.
Then we went to the abandoned house to see it in the dark, everyone except Acacia,Mason,Louis and I, went in.
On the way there I was introduced to Deadmau5 by Justin.
We finally went to bed at like, 11:30pm.
At 6:00am Acacia woke up to go to the restroom, I hear "Savannah, there is a puddle in the doorway" my feet/the bottom of my sleeping bag, was in it.
It was raining as we pitched a second tent, which I had brought for Acacia's little brother Gavin.
Me-"GAVIN WHERE IS THE YELLOW TENT!"
Gavin-"Huh, it's in here..."
Me-"WE NEED IT, RIGHT NOW!"
Finally we had switch all our stuff into the new tent, and set my sleeping bag in our troop's canopy to dry.
At 8:00am we went to the meeting and signed up for the Great Race.
With nothing to do until 1:00pm, we hung out at the lake.
Finally, the Great Race started, Acacia and I where team Rainbow Ducktape.
Mason was our fanboy/slave and carried our backpack of stuff around for us.
We completed everything except Fire Starting and Orienteering.
We could not start a fire with Flint and Steel(I think that's what it's called)
and Orienteering was cancelled do to the weather.
We went to bed the second night at 12:00am.
Our tent stayed dry.
we woke up and tried to start a fire, Louis helped us, but he wasn't allowed to speak, since he just joined the Order of the Arrow. 
it took him 30 minutes to finally tell us that our matches where wet...
then we had to pack up and leave, on the the way back, Justin gave me an automotive lesson and we talked about jobs/family/driving lessons and the fact that I'm going to the same school(GWS) as him.
