I got to go through the rope garden! I mean this thing goes from easy to hard, you start with an easy bridge to cross and end with a zigzag skinny log bridge thing. Now I have to explain that at one point it breaks off in two paths, where you can do an easy one thing or a hard three things. And this being my first time and me being me I choose the three hard things. Now to be honest the first two were not that hard. It was a tight rope, and then a swing across. But it was the third one that was hard and I did not get what I was suppose to do, so I fell, now mind you I only fell maybe about a meter, because of the harness and such. So what it was, was a tire tied to a rope and the a rope with a knot, and then a tire and then a rope and then a tire. And I guess you had to get both feet on top of the tire and them get them in the loop on the rope and so forth, I'm not really sure and I missed watching what I was suppose to do because I was looking somewhere else, so you know. So I fell and then I couldn't get back up, so I had to swing a little so I could grab the rope and pull myself over the cord my harness was on to get to the other side. Oh it was FUNNY! and then the rest of the course was pretty ok. They had a rope X that I also had a bit of trouble getting over and they were just like "What are you doing?!" And I was like I don't really know lol. But I made it through it all with only falling that one time so I was happy, and it was fun!
So today I spent about 6 hours in the trees. I'm not joking either, they have this thing called the rope garden, that is like 30 feet in the air maybe more, and I was up in it for SIX hours. I will post up pictures maybe next week when I take them. But we had a class that had picked the rope garden and they had like 40 or so kids and we had to get them all up and through it. Me and Sven were the only ones up there for the whole time and I had the hardest job, probably because I'm the newbie. But I got the job of helping all the kids up. They have a choice between two ladders and then they connect their harnesses to a rope that I get to pull and such so they can come up and if they fall or whatever they don't go to the ground. So I had 6 hours of hoisting kids, but it is ok because in the end I had fun.
