The Food in the Camp

The food in the camp is excellent. We all had three meals a day and each meal was a typical one from an English speaking country.

From fried chicken, sweet corn sauce, and potatoes, a typical food from the south of North America for lunch, to Sheperd’s pie and pears and custard from England for dinner. And that were only the meals from one day!

On Saturday, we had pancakes with maple syrup, toast with jam and butter, coffee, tea or milk a typical American breakfast. At lunch time baked potatoes with minced meat and apple crumble for dessert.

At dinner the dish consisted of Guiness stew and cheese cake, typical in Ireland.

Finally, the last day, we had a big English breakfast, the most expected one! Bacon and eggs, toast, tomatoes, tea and coffee for all of us. At lunch hamburgers and banoffee, a very typical American food.

I should also say that every night before we go to bed the counsellors gave us amazing hot chocolate and delicious cakes so that was a great thing about the camp.

To sum up, I think the food was perfect and at the time were meeting new people we were learning about the culture and the customs of other countries. In England, for example, they have only three meals a day and dinner is at 7:30 which I thought it was very strange as in my country we are used to having dinner at nine or ten. But, it was a great experience and I really enjoy it.
