Day 4 at Lendrick Muir

Today the purple and yellow groups did the King Swing. When it was your shot you got harnessed to a bar and you then got pulled up by your team. On the first shot you were pulled to half way and then the second time you could go all the way. To release the swing, you had to pull the string behind you. It could be quite scary going the full way down. During the King Swing today one of us managed to scare Miss Brown when we didn’t release it straight away. She screamed the whole way down. Thankfully she can laugh about it now.

The orange group went on the bikes today and they were doing an obstacle course on the bike before they went into the woods. They enjoyed being on the trail bikes.

During mini survival the groups had to build a mini hut for their person and they had to see if it would stay up with the wind and the rain. They also had to make up a story about the little person and why they needed a shelter in the forest. While they were in the forest they got to try some wood sorrel. It tasted like sour apples at first and then like lemon at the end.

All the groups got to go to the inflatables today. There were two different inflatables. There was the Bungee Run were you had to run as far as you could before it pulled you back and the other one was called Wrecking Ball. We all had our podiums to stand on and we had to try and knock one another off with the wrecking ball. The majority of us preferred the bungee run.

Everyone got to do archery tag today. In archery tag you get a bow and arrows with foam tips. For the challenge you had to try and hit at targets. It was fun because you had to aim at things but it was a bit sore if it hit you.

The yellow group got to go to the bungee trampolines today. Two of us nearly managed to do a double somersault. The trampolines were really fun because with baby steps we managed to go higher and higher.

The last group got to do nightline today. For this they had to wear blindfolds and follow directions. Once they had practised following the voice they then had to hold a rope and follow the instructor into the woods. When they got there they then had to navigate through an obstacle course. There were tyres, netting and ropes as well as tunnels that they had to get through. It was pretty good as well because it was fun doing things with the blindfold on.

For dinner tonight we could have either sweet and sour chicken, chilli or vegetable chilli and then we got sticky toffee. The sticky toffee pudding was the best bit.

We are now heading out to play games on the MUGA pitch before we finish off watching Moana. Good night from Lenrick Muir and we will see you all tomorrow.
