Sleepys here! While Some of us woke up to a beach others were hard at work rotating shifts of co-piloting from 12 AM - 3 AM and 3 AM - 6 AM sacrificing sleep in order to uphold a safe venture through the night. Our drive took us all the way to Santa Monica. The co-pilots kept our counselors to awake and helped make our friends to feel safe while resting.
We love our counselors <3
We don't have cliffs like those on east coast beaches

Fisher becoming a jack of all trades
Hollister made an original song about Santa Monica
All of the groups were challenged to a fierce competition to change lyrics of popular songs in order to match the theme of the TWB adventure. This competition promoted teamwork, creativity, leadership, and discipline in order to create something that can perfectly encapsulate the feelings we all feel on TWB, it was a funny way to release some of that classic TWB energy!!
At our campsite in Anaheim!
After a very long and tiring day at Santa Monica, we finally got to camp! Some got their much needed naps on the way to camp, swimming in the Pacific Ocean is hard for little Sleepy's like us. If you’re wondering whether or not your kids are sleeping well, they sleep sitting up (take that as you will). Once we all got settled down it was time to fight for the showers with 90 something other people, apparently campgrounds don’t make that many shower rooms… Everyone wanted to take a nice blazing hot shower but when it came to the campgrounds showers, we got flashbacks to the chilly ocean water. We finally get to indulge in some nice Dino nuggets, mac n cheese, and green beans prepared by our awesome chef’s (the Bashfuls), and us Sleepy’s are HUNGRY!
Almost dinner time, we heard they were making gourmet mac n cheese
Erin calling home!
Bashful's prepping a delicious meal of dino nugggs
Tonight we will sleep in Anaheim, so that we can wake up and see Walt Disney's amazing creation… DISNEYLAND. For a lot of us it is our first time going to the magical place, we expect it to be as hard to go to sleep as Christmas Eve night! We can’t wait to get serenaded to sleep with Dallas’s amazing vocals at the sing along. SEE Y'ALL TOMORROW IN THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!
