Day 1: Moon Rise Bay

   We left Basecamp as one of the last groups around 10:00 a.m. this morning. It was looking to be easy today since we were starting with a tailwind helping us. However, within the first hour of leaving, Quin remembered that he had forgotten to pack our tent. Luckily he remembered early on. We still had to find a spot to rest, while we called Sue and waited for her to bring us our tent. After a short wait, and getting our tent, we paddled on. Even with the help from the tailwinds, our paddling was slow.
   In the early afternoon, we left the option of continuing on to Mason and Reid up to the campers. They were tired and chose the easier option of staying the night at Moon Rise Bay, then going to Mason and Reid tomorrow.
   Making it to camp early we had plenty of time to enjoy fishing, swimming, and exploring. When the campers were done swimming, a few of them went off into the woods to collect sticks to build a sailboat but came back empty-handed.
   When they were hungry, Quin taught two of them to build and start a fire, while I explained how cooking on trail works to two others. The group of them worked together to cook our dinner of tacos. For the remainder of the night, the campers swam some more and just enjoyed hanging out and talking to each other without the distraction of real-world living.
   Although not a lot of distance was covered today, I can see that they are learning a lot of this trip already.
