16. A month ago, I had no idea that on Saturday afternoon in November I’d be hanging 30 metersabove the ground and enjoying it. Now I looked down at the river far below me, and realized why

people love rock-climbing.

My friend Matt and I had arrived at the Activity Center on Friday evening. The accommodation

wasn’t wonderful, but we had everything we needed (beds, blankets, food), and we were pleases

to be out of the city and in the fresh air.

On Saturday morning, we met the other ten members of our group. Cameron had come along with

two friends, Kevin and Simon, while Sister Carole and Lynn had come with Amanda. We had come

from various places and none of us knew the area.

We knew we were going to spend the weekend outdoors, but none of us was sure exactly how.

Half of us spend the morning caving while the others went rock-climbing and then we changed at

lunchtime. Matt and I went to the caves first. Climbing out was harder than going in, but after a

good deal of pushing, we were out at last – covered in mud but pleased and excited by what

we’ve done.
