WPCA Rockcliming
IT WAS AWESOME! I felt like I did the best of my ability., I woke up that morning and I was super tired and my body was aching I came to school had a gear check got into the vans and headed off to Punakaiki. When I arrived I was not scared is also found that I was surprisingly good at climbing.i started off with one of the small walls then I went to the big one I was ready I felt like I could do it... I was the first one to get to the highest wall and it felt amazing! it was a struggle as there were a big dip and the wall and I did not think I could get over it but I was to pushed my self out of my comfort zone and I got over it I had got to the top, I looked down I wanted to come down instantly I was super high. It felt rewarding to get to the top tho when I was at the top the view was incredible you could see the sea and the river it was honestly amazing. We also got taught how to belay I was pretty good at it but I did not enjoy it as much climbing. I belayed sammi I pinched myself in the teeth (which is the thing that you thread the rope through and attach it to your harness). The day was super rewarding and I enjoyed it a lot the day had it's up and it had its downs but it was super fun.๐

WPCA Rafting the Arnold
Holy moly what an amazing experience it was scary but heck it was fun...
flying over the waves and spinning because of hidden rocks under the water,
I would do it 100 more times if I could. I just loved the thrill of it it got my adrenaline pumping
I was not even that scared I wanted to jump to another raft but I did not want to fall in so I gave it a pass
maybe on a warmer day!

My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Part was pyramid rock, so on this particular day, we could not see it because
the river was higher than usual. And where about 100m away from where it usually is and then we keep
on cruising down the river and then boom we got stuck on it then we dropped about 90cm down into the
water again! And we got stuck because the current was going towards us and it was pulling us back it
was very challenging but very cool it was such a relief when we got out of it.

We passed a dead cow that had been there for a long time I was dry retching and it
was so bad it was this rotten smell, in the end apart from being cold and wet it was such an amazing
an experience I loved it so much.
