Pink sunsets fade slowly, mirroring perfectly over Lake Windermere’s utter beauty. Miles upon miles of high rolling hills isolate Lake Windermere from any other lake in the world. My spectacular week at the Lake District was one to remember upon many other times of my life. One of my favourite activities of our stunning weekend was the king swing. Anxiously I got strapped in to a bulky harness then got pulled to the top were I yanked on a smooth black leaver to then swing forwards and backwards. Enough outstanding activity was raft building, first we designed the raft then we began to tie the big wooden beams together to make the structure. Next we lifted our structure over to the water were we put the big blue barrels under the raft to make it float. Are raft successfully worked and we stayed dry until we jumped in! After a good night’s sleep in our worm sleeping bags and cosy green tents we were ready to do abseiling. First we got kitted up in harnesses and helmets then George had to give us a briefing. Before long I was ready for my go, surprisingly I had no fear and shot right up to the top. When I got down every body congratulated me then George, our instructor called me up for abseiling. In a while it was my turn so I Buckled up and began to walk of the cliff, carefully I shuffled slowly down the shear edge, staring at the rocky wall of the grey limestone, before long I had reached the bottom. This year’s Lakeside trip was memorable for many reasons: wonderful weather, great instructors, brilliant facility’s and fantastic foods .All run by are awesome instructors [Ross, All, George] whom also agreed that we were a great class.
