Six Word Saturday:
Would you jump from eight metres?
I spent three days this week at an adventure camp with most of Year 7. They had loads of activities, like rope climbing, canoeing, raft building and a mud challenge. Some activities I didn’t do because I knew there wouldn’t be enough time for all of the kids to get a turn, some I didn’t do because it was about their teamwork and solving a problem together, some I didn’t do simply because I didn’t want to. But when I came to the super drop, I knew there would be enough time for everyone to have a turn, and when the kids wanted me to go first I said yes. When I got to the top I almost changed my mind but that is not what an adventure camp is about, is it? Plus it was completely safe, the harness and attachment wasn’t going to let me fall that fast and we’d already been through how to land. It was fun, but scary at the same time. I’m glad I did it.
Happy Saturday everyone!
Good for you, what fun and yes I would jump 🙂
Well done! I don;t think I could do it.
You brave lady! 🙂
I think my answer might be no, but I would have joined in with some of the other things as long as all the children had had a turn. I’ve been on two adventure camps similar to yours, but with children a year younger, and had a go at a few things.
Well done – I bet you all had a wonderful day.
Not much of an adventure, what with all those harnesses and cables now, is it? I think if the guys at the top told everyone up front, “At least one of you won’t really be hooked up to the cable.” Now that would be an adventure!
You are brave. I’m afraid I wouldn’t jump.
No…I have too many artificial joints already. Good luck with that! *wink*
I don’t think I would be able to. So brave of you.
You are so right! Good for you. Far too often we miss out on thrilling and excitingly fun stuff just by being afraid to do it. We fall into the same old traps instead of being daring! Kind of what my six words is all about.
I think fear would have gotten the better of me. Good for you!
Wow, you overcame your fear and did it. I’m proud of you!
Good for you. You’re a better woman than I am.
sounds like great fun but i wouldn’t participate in many of them; have a nice weekend
much love…
Why 8 metres, why not 60: http://docugraphy.wordpress.com/2013/11/16/bungee-jumping-victoria-falls-zambia/
