Last night we went swimming to the pool in the town . It was great fun because we had all the equipment out and the pool to ourselves. On  the way back to the hostel we all had tasty chips.

Today we woke up and had breakfast. Then groups 1 and 2 went coasteering and abseiling/climbing and groups 3 and 4 did gorge walking. It was snowing and very cold but exciting.

Then lunch back at the hostel.

After that group 1 went abseiling and climbing group 2 went coasteering and groups 3 and 4 had archery .

Tonight we are having a beach bonfire if the rain stops- fingers crossed !

and tomorrow we are coming home .

Firstly we got on the bus and set off for a long journey ahead. On the bus some people played games while some others chatted among themselves. We took a break for a snack before we arrived at our destination.

When we arrived we finnished off our lunch and got into our groups for our rooms. We cmpleted some activities such as Smelly Swamp, Magic Stick, Golden Egg and Rope and Blindfold.

For dinner we had Chicken Korma and pudding. We then began our adventure by walking to an old castle and played some games on the way.

We then had some snacks then went to bed. Once we had all woken up we headed downstairs for breakfast.
