Delegation of the day - Latvia

This morning started with Latvian music as we had the right to pick the wake up songs. After the flagtime when our delegation had the duty to raise the CISV flag, we started activities.

In first activity we had the "I love my neighbour who has ..." game. It was real fun because we had to switch chairs and be careful when the person in the middle called on the characteristics we had. Then we had the card game also with chairs when we moved around the circle based on wheather the right sort of cards was called - clubs, diamonds, spades or hearts. But we had to stay in our chair if anyone was sitting in our lap. Sometimes the wait was pretty annoying, especially hearing the right sort of card when you were blocked in your seat. Sometimes the aces made the difference as we switched on the chairs if someone was in front. Next on the menu was "Chicken and monster race". That was a funny running game where monsters catched the chickens.

In second activity we had "Green and red card" game where there were eight groups which tried to get the maximum points by guessing the color which most of the other teams would not call. That was a kind of betting game with lots of arguments and agreements inside the groups. The key of success was strategy and cooperation.

In third activity we had values auction where eight teams were given an amount of money and they had to buy in an auction different things such as ipod, love, cars, friendship, nature, Britney Spears, McDonalds etc. After that we had a discussion about what and why we bought, which is the most important part of that activity.

In the evening we of course as always had the lullabies and our JC Raffy was great playing the guitar with four strings out of five as we sang the songs.

See you later!
