We went Rock Climbing...O.K., 'we' sounds like a crowd....I took the kids Rock Climbing. Remy thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, he usually climbs at the gym- where he knows the exact placement of each foothold, and is able to reach the top in 5 seconds flat. Here, not so fast, he worked hard, and it was a bit higher but he reached the top and rang the bell twice ( no bell at the gym!) The picture here is from a different element, he got two thirds of the way up, then went back to the familiar...
Maura, on the other hand, doesn't particularly enjoy climbing the wall at the gym, she mostly does it "because it's there", and because her brother does it...she hasn't reached the top. Yet. Anyway, when we got there, she was unsure as to whether she should even participate or not, but she found the courage, along with a new little friend and together they tried out two of the elements, the rope one, and courageously, the 'cat walk' !!!!! She did SO GOOD!!!! She got through half of the rope walking part and then rapelled (?) off....the image is of her going up to 'conquer her fear'.
