Shadow Activity

The shadow activity required us to follow a partner's shadow around while having one foot on it at all times. Rather than alerting our partner vocally each time we lost track of their shadow, we signaled them by tapping two stones together ; We switched roles with our partner every time the stones were tapped. I expected this activity to be rather monotonous as we only had a small area of the parking lot to work with, and I had assumed that we would only be walking. However, within seconds the activity evolved into a game as my partner and I were trying to lead each other to impractical locations (over bushes, on the other side of fences, and on top of cars) in an attempt to throw one another off. The no-talking rule was quickly ignored as well, since the activity was too energetic for silence. Overall, I would label this activity as being silly, yet interesting.
