Before our afternoon surf session, we had a two hour break of nothingness. It has been a long, long time since I have had two entire hours with absolutely nothing that I needed to do. No work to do, no internet to surf, no television to watch even. It was wonderful. Guy had mentioned during orientation that there was a jumping pillow at the camp. Intrigued, Aubrey and I decided to spend our free time looking for this pillow so as to jump on it. It didn’t take long to find. The jumping pillow was a massive tarp that was filled with air and cemented to the ground. It did in fact look like an enormous yellow and blue pillow popping out of the earth. Aubrey and I scaled the sides of the pillow until we reached the top. Then we jumped. Folks, this jumping pillow was heaps more fun to jump on than a trampoline, and that’s saying a lot because I am a huge fan of trampolines, which means I am now a HUGE fan of jumping pillows. I will be installing on in my backyard one day. It was so much fun! We just jumped and flipped the afternoon away, giggling with delight. Really, the experience of bouncing on the jumping pillow alone was worth the $300 I paid to go to surf camp. If the ocean suddenly dried up and I couldn’t surf again, I would have still gone home a happy camper.

And this is how high you can actually jump on the jumping pillow, as demonstrated by Sir Saxton.
