Our Trip to Carlingford!

Last week our TY group went up to Louth to spend two days at Carlingford Adventure Centre. We had a great time, but arrived home tired, wet and aching. We left by bus at 7:00am and once we'd arrived were immediately sent out to do our morning activity; The High Ropes Course!! I was terrified watching my classmates scale up the ropes about 30 feet in the air and almost died with fright when I attempted it myself! In the afternoon we went back out to do kayaking and pier jumping (best fun ever!!) I have to say that the dinner and lunches impressed me. It wasn't the usual disgusting mulch that is commonly served in hostles, but gorgeous, filling meals! What followed that evening was the only low point of the trip, the hill walk.. What a fiasco!! We treked up a mountain in the pitch dark for three hours. It was foggy, lashing rain and blowing a gale!! We all slept well that night! :) The next day we did orienteering, archery and the Challenge Course. My team had so much fun in the box maze and nearly all of us got drenched while trying to cross the river!! I absolutely loved the trip, we had so much fun!!!!
