Today we went to the Adventure Park. It has a series of zip lines and high ropes courses - rock climbing and repelling. It was a long, hot hike up there, but WOW!!! was it worth it!!! We all zip lined several times and then some of us repelled off of a high bridge while the others zip lined more. After we all went over the bridge, I dashed back to the top so I could jump off the bridge. That was such a rush!!! Standing on the platform after climbing over the bridge railing was SUPER SCARY, but the hardest part was of course, stepping ( or jumping in my case ) off of the platform. What a rush!!! Izzy too loads of photos and someone shot video, so we will post those when we can.
Fun facing fears and pushing to do hard and scary things. Scaling the rock face was the scariest thing for me. Putting my life in the hands of a 15 year old was hard for me, but what a thrill to scale an actual vertical wall - real mountain wall with only natural hand and foot holds - no man made handles to grasp, you had to find your own. It was harder than I thought it would be. We repelled down, and did it again. What a FUN, FUN day!!!
