I want to finish up the camping posts with a shout-out to my fellow campers. It was a great team and a great experience and I hope we can all do this same thing again sometime, but in the middle of winter.
SM – we would have all died several times had you not been leading us (but to be fair we also would have never gone on the trip in the first place because you organized everything).
AW – thank you so much for the German lessons. By the end I was getting sick and tired of all the spoken English.
DDB – I’ll bring my fishing rod next time and we can catch some fish together but we’re only going to eat them if there’s no other food.
LD – I’m sorry I got us lost on the drive home and you were late to hand in your masters thesis and now you’re going to have to wait a whole year before you can graduate. But on the bright side you have lots of free time to go whitewater canoe camping!
YL – Thinking of you gave me the inspiration to complete what was a difficult blog post about the dangers of camping toilets. Stay gold!
SB – You were a trooper. You probably didn’t notice because your back was to him, but YL was asleep the entire time you were paddling. He didn’t put his paddle in the water once. True story. ER and I could see perfectly from our canoe.
ER – I think I got it now. Latvia and Lithuania are two different countries with their own languages, currencies and hockey leagues.
And one final reminder for everyone out there – don’t forget: there are only three approved memes.

๐ It was a great time! Why not do a camping adventure in Canadian winter? ๐
