Day 3: The students say...

Team Jordan
 
Our trip so far (by Evie Lawrenson, Ellie Fitchen and Molly Curtis)

After 4 hours in the coach on the way to Wales, we finally arrived at Glasbury. We were shown to our rooms in the main house and bunker house. Our rooms are really spacious and we are really happy with our roomies. Our group has voted Molly and Cameron as the best Cavers and Ellie as the most improved Caver as she was terrified at the beginning and led the group by the end.

Today (by Angus Baker and Isaac Moore)

Although only getting 7.5 hours sleep, we were up and ready for another day of adventure (water falling). It was tough to get up, but we persevered and achieved an accomplishment of beating the Niagara falls (Glasbury falls). We both had very sore legs because of football injuries and orienteering injuries but instead of complaining we conquered the pain. We got ready and after we were on the road. The drive was about an hour, but it felt like a week. We had arrived after stopping off at the caving site and filling up our petrol, as Stu forgot. We departed from our minibus, walked down to the Glasbury falls, sat down and eat lunch. After lunch, we geared up ready to face the waterfalls. Our first challenge, to walk across the falls, go under the waterfall, crawl to the boulder and be taken out of the falls to safety. There were many little pool crates that we could go and bathe in, however as the they were freezing we couldn’t stay in for long. That’s not all though, at the end of the good day we were treated to go down a nice waterslide and it was very fun. As we thought everything was sky high, Stu, the forgetter, decided to reject our request of ice creams. He claimed to have no money but we all knew he did. So, therefore he should be getting them for us tomorrow otherwise he will be facing a few unhappy students...
