In early October we went with a group of Camp Zama Girl and Boy Scouts to join a Japanese group of Scouts to do some orienteering. We grouped into teams (we were the white team) and were then given instructions, a compass and map. They staggered the teams' starts and we headed out into a very large park. We were looking for little signs tucked back in the woods.
Vanessa and I are ready to go!
We were the only team with a baby and stroller. It made it a little challenging when we decided to go "off road" for a short cut that wasn't so short.
Maddie helped one of the little girls in our group.
We finished the orienteering at a place in the park where they have a little dairy. They gave us some of the milk from these cows and it was incredibly delicious. We ended up buying more to take home with us along with some smoked cheese. It was the best smoked cheese I have ever had!
Maddie enjoyed the big hill next to where we had our picnic lunch. In addition to the wonderful milk, the group that held the event provided a McDonald's lunch of fish filets and McHot Dogs.
In another area of the park they had some rides for the kids. Vanessa rode the giant panda.
And Maddie rode the race/bumper cars. We all had a really good time. Orienteering is fun!
