The past weekend i went to Blanchtown for our yearly air camp. The reason why its called air camp is beacause we go up in a glider and go flying for 20 mins. Its at Armstrong air base and its on a private farm. Its owned by a person but the scouts rent part of it for the air base. When you go up in the glider you also get to take control for 10 mins or so. This was my second time on the camp. I thought it was better than last year. This year it was freezing though. It was 2 degrees at night. Every year we also go on a trailer out in the scrub and try to find rabbits, kangaroos, wombats and other animals. This year we only saw one kangaroo but it was on the other side of the fence so we couldnt chase after it. Also we only saw rabbits and no wombats this year. Last year we nearly ran over a wombat!
