Carlingford Baby (day two)

Woken up at what felt like 3 in the morning everyone of us stumbled out of bed to hear the crazy music blaring out of the intercom, Carlingford really knows how to wake teenagers up! 
We started off wild day number two with (once again) a trip up the mountain this time for ab-sailing and rock climbing. Ab-sailing had me shaking with fear but thanks to the great jokes of the instructors  I managed to jump down the cliff edge hoping I could go on forever.
Finally our last adventure of the trip was orienteering which also brought us on our last trip up that dreaded mountain. Our team of four soon became mixed into a team of about 10 stopping half way up a very long steep slope for a picnic of two bars of chocolate and a few lolly pops! Everyone's mood was lifted and orienteering became the best fun around.
 It left us with some of the craziest sayings possibly due to the lack of sleep or maybe just the enormous amount of sheep. Here are just a few of the examples: 
'Its a 'G' and there's a ram!'
'Leah you use to wriggle' 
and my favourite 'It's hard to find a really nice banana'
After it all we were so sad to get on the bus and leave the great town of Carlingford! Luckily I had the funniest bus trip of my life, half asleep singing my heart out with Vicky and having some very odd conversations about swans. 
It was a really great experience, so thanks Mrs. L for organizing the trip!
