Woodloch Vacation - Day 3

Pete and Sam enjoyed the following activities on day 3 of the Woodloch vacation. This was clearly the longest and most memorable day of the trip:

1. Scavenger Hunt - Started in the North Lodge, but the team headed all around the Main Lodge searching for implements and puzzle solutions.

2. In It To Win It - This included about 12 teams of 10-12 players each. The teams took turns completing the bottle toss. pin pong cup bounce/catch, M&M straw, tape measure balance, egg roll, and pencil cup bounce. This was the only event of the week where the family's team finished in last place, but a lot of fun was had by all.

3. Name That Tune - Although outnumbered by other teams, Pete and Sam's team overachieved in this event and finished tied for 4th out of about 15 teams. Pete and Sam handled all of the songs from the 2000's, while Mom and Dad helped out with the older songs.

4. Night swimming - The boys forgot their shirts at the water's edge and swam for a few hours after dinner in the large pool and indoor splash park.

5. Family Karaoke Party - This started at 10:15pm, and by the time Pete and every other kid had sung 3 songs it was close to 1am. Pete did "Tick Tock", "Hot N Cold", and "All the Right Moves". He was joined on stage by backup dancer, Sam. They were the only actual "performance" out of all the acts. Although the rules prohibited repeating the same song, Dad was gravely disappointed to realize over the course of the evening how many different Taylor Swift songs there are.
