After breakfast we embarked on a mission to thrash our way through a jungle... 3 hours later and the seemingly impenetrably landscape was now quite open. The task involved, but was not limited to abundant poison ivy, numerous thorns, Brazilian peppers, swamp, and trees of all shapes and sizes; one more notable than the rest. Although the task seemed daunting at the beginning, it was the most fun we had had working all week. We charged into the jungle with loppers and a hacksaw and never looked back.
Our afternoon involved planting 150 2-foot tall pine saplings. This work was much less enjoyable than the jungle thrashing, but we managed to find a way to remain entertained by singing a song about what any normal teenager sings songs about: hotels. Some of us remained more entertained by the song than others... specifically Luke. He commented, "If I wasn't a pacifist, I would punch the next person who sings that hotel song."
