The possibility for adventure is endless here at Woodstock.
This coming weekend, all grades are participating in a three-day weekend of outdoor/humanitarian awesomeness. Activities offered include hikes around Mussoorie, creative writing sessions, WWI battle re-enactments, a visit to a home for autistic adults, silent retreats, and a three day trek to summit Nag Tibba, one of the highest peaks in the Mussoorie area.
So obviously, I'm climbing Nag Tibba next weekend.

Hiking, again! Let's do this!
Although I am less excited to see what horrendous occurence happend to me on this hike. Maybe I'll break a bone, or lose my pack, or get altitude sickness, or my boots will fall apart (again).
Who knows? Mother nature, do your worst!
My second adventure planned is quarter break: kayaking in the Ganges.
A few of us, Hope, Annabelle and myself included, were selected to go on the whitewater kayaking learning trip for five days this quarter break. Here's a video of one of our instructors:
Needless to say, I am crazily excited for this trip as well. We're to spend a couple of days on flat water, learning rolls, emergency manoevers, reading flow, and whitewater technique. After that, we're hitting the river, in some level 1 rapids!
To adventure, fun, exploration and hoping I don't die,
Emily
Oh my goodness Lilypip. You are a your godmother's daughter. Have a great time summiting. I predict your 'disaster' will be too much salt in the soup, or forgetting your camera or something.
ReplyDeleteI have no doubts you'll be okay in level one rapids. You can swim in the rapids at the nun's cottage just fine. Good luck learning to roll. I need to relearn since I haven't done it since I was 19!
You go girl!
Love ya,
Janet
