Last night we went to the arena show and then to the Dream Module. The arena show was pretty much a giant dance party with 50,000 people (Participants and Camp-in-Camp hosts). Some famous Swedish popstars like Timbuktu and Hoffmeister came and everyone just danced the night away, or at least until 9:30, when the show ended. Of course we didn't understand the words, but the beat was amazing and we shared our favorite dance moves with the countries surrounding us.
After that we were able to roam around the camp until around 11:30, when we had to come back and prepare for Dream. We made a giant sleeping pile with everyone; we all brought out our air mattresses and sleeping bags to try to keep each other awake because the module actually started at 12:30. In Dream we went through the stages of life but backwards, all the way from death to childhood. In Old Age we created a person, then traveled back in time from age 60 to 20 to see the decisions that person would have had to make to reach the intended goal. We learned about world leaders, but the most important lesson was learning about the need to fulfill your own dreams, no matter how grand or humble they were.
Today is our free day. After a breakfast of pancakes, or crepes, depending on our time and skill, we'll be free to wander around and trade to our hearts' desires. People will be working on the Friendship Award and exchanging contact information for after the jamboree.
We're sad to go, but excited to be home again and see all our loved ones!
