Adrenaline forest.
In the christmas holidays, I went to adrenaline forest with my dad... When we arrived, straight away my stomach churned, I felt butterfly's in my stomach making me feel sick! When the instructor was putting my harness on I looked up at the people already on the course, I saw someone getting rescued from up in the trees, that made me shudder even more! I chose to climb level 3 first...
As I climbed up the long swaying ladder my body was trembling, as I reached the top I dared not to look down... But I did... But this time, I didn't feel very scared, deep down I knew the chances of the harness not working and the chances of me falling were VERY rare, so I continued on with the course...
I went across a ladder that flips over when you are not keeping your center of balance, then I climbed a big cargo net that swayed back and forth in the wind... I felt very brave... Until I reached a really long flying fox that I had to clip onto... I heard some screams from other people doing down flying foxes on the course which made me want to clench onto the platform even harder... But a sudden rush of adrenaline forced me to leap off the platform, as I was "flying" down I felt the cool breeze brushing against my face... I then braced myself for the landing...
I had done it! As I was taking my harness off, I felt very proud for challenging myself and achieving a goal...
