On Monday the 12th of September we went to the Carlingford Adventure Centre in Louth. We had to get up really early because we had to be on the road by 7 a.m. It was exciting because there were 77 of us going. When we arrived we got straight into the activities. Our first one was the adventure course, where we had teams that had to get past lots of different challenges e.g. a blindfolded maze, the low ropes, the bomb, the spider's web, and buzz.
After that we got to have an hour off for lunch and then it was straight back outside for a lazer war in the forest where we had to walk up this huge hill and dress up in soldiers clothes. That night we went back into the forest and up that hill again and we had to walk from one end of the forest to the other blindfolded and holding onto a rope. It was really scary because the forest was on a mountain so it was easy to fall. Later on that night we had two hours of free time before we had to go to bed so we went down to the common room with the boys from another school where we had a sing-song and we got to watch one of the centres instructors do a fire show. The next morning we were all wrecked and after breakfast we went orienteering where we had to walk around the forest for two hours. Later we had lunch and then it was time for our last activity which was rock climbing. Eventhugh I am afraid of heights it was really fun and I would definately do it again. On the way home from carlingford we were in the mini-bus again and my friends decided that we should sing along to all the old songs on my phone.....ugh! I really hope that we get to do something like Carlingford again it was great crack.
