Bonjour! Voila, we have traveled back in time again and met Napoleon Bonaparte. We were very impressed with him. What a masterful leader!
We learned a traditional french dance bourree that was surely popular in the times of Napoleon. We liked it too! After dance we played "dragon's tail" and "pop the balloon" games. Kids enjoyed them so much that even Supriya, our amazing "summer camp snacks in charge", came to see why we are late for snacks. That reminded us that our stomachs are rumbling and we quickly went up to dinning hall to enjoy the crepes, thin pancakes that originate in Brittany, a northwest region of France. With jam...mmmmmmm.
There was only one thing left to do - crafts. We made cockades in the colors of French flag - just like the one Napoleon wore pinned on his hat. What is a cockade? It's an ornament, very much like a rosette usually worn on a hat as a badge.
Tomorrow we will visit my beloved country Slovenia :)
