the lodge at woodloch.

I am loving this place! it's like summer camp for adults. I am up early again for a yummy b'fast. there are activities all day long. yesterday I took a boot camp class for an hour, did the ellptical for 20 mins, biked for 15 mins, swam 1/4 mile, and took a spinning class where i was the onlyperson in the class so it was like a private lesson. I also took a 2 hour water color painting class and this is where my concerns lie:so in the watercolor class were myself and a mother and daughter. the daughter, amy is 28 and we were looking outside at the same landscape and we decided to sketch and then paint the same picture. well if you saw the difference in our pictures... SCARY! hers was this beautiul interpretation of the woods that looked straight out of a fairy tale and mine was literally a green blob (a bush) a brown blob (dirt) a few grey blobs (apparently floating rocks) and a few more different shades of grey blobs that were supposed to be a stone path. basically the only thing i really accomplished during this 2 hour class was mixing yellow and blue paint to make a green color and to be perfectly honest, I barely pulled that off.

I shall take a picture of my painting to really give you an idea and post it tonight upon my return to NY. What i love also is that everyone, well, that would be an exaggeration, but most people just walk around in their robes! like at b'fast yester. I went in my robe!! and then at the cooking demonstration yester, one of the women was in her robe! The cooking demonstration was fun, the chef was cute and made cooking look fun and easy. Then last night after dinner my sister and i went to the seminar about hypnosis. all the seminars are about improving yourself/the mind body connection, etc. My sis went to another one yester while I was at the spa in the steam room, about talking to the dead, it seemed silly to me so i skipped it.

well, i need to strap on my bath robe and head to b'fast. I'm going to have beeet/ginger/carrot juice!! the juices here are so good and then maybe i'll have an egg white omelet! YUM!
