We have been having a lovely time on the Phab Holiday, our weather has been really sunny and warm and everybody is getting on really well.
Today, half of us went out to Lake Windermere to do canoeing and kayaking, it was a lot of fun, although we got a little bit (or in some cases very) wet! We had a picnic on a small island in the middle of the lake and enjoyed ice creams back on the mainland…YUM! We have all improved our water crafts.
Meanwhile, back at Bendrigg, the other half of us enjoyed the indoor climbing wall, the zip-wire, abseiling, bendi pot and bendi beam. Bendi pot is a dark (scary) tunnel which you have to crawl around in your hands and knees...We had to watch out for the spiders! Bendi beam is a long tree trunk which you walk up and ring a bell at the end, some of the adventurous ones went up blindfolded and backwards. It was loads of fun and everyone has gained in confidence.
Everybody is working really well in a team, especially in creating a song to perform at the camp fire- an entertaining night where we finished off with marshmallows. Don’t tell the little ones, but some of us older ones are playing volleyball at the moment! Ssh…
See you too soon :-)
