Carlingford!

Hello there!

Well, Last week was very eventful! We went to Carlingford Adventure Center!!
It all began at the unnecessarily early time of 7am Monday morning. After a fairly speedy two hours we arrived at Carlingford! The village of Carlingford was absolutely beautiful, so beautiful that Leah and I were convinced it was a fake village. We believed that this fake village was set up purely for The Adventure Center customers. (Ooops) 


When we arrived we were put into Groups, I was in Group B. We were then given the keys to our rooms, it was all very exciting. What made it more exciting was the fact that we weren't just given a room, we were given an apartment, complete with a TV and The Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets movie! We were pretty impressed to say the least!Group Accommodation.........Our Apartment (Muhahaha)   ;)

We then headed downstairs kitted with towels and swimming togs for our first activity, which was kayaking. Needless to say, Leah and I found our undiscovered talent for kayaking! We kayaked to a stony beach where we played games and had fun. After, we headed in for a badly needed hot lunch!

Straight after lunch we put on our camonsies, and received our guns for Laser Tag! Which was without a doubt the best thing we did! We hiked up a never ending mountain until we reached the battlefield! Where we spent two and a half hours shooting, dying and capturing flags!

The following morning we were awoken with a fright to a booming, cheery voice over the intercom far too early for my liking! 

After breakfast we headed straight to the beach for canoeing, which was brilliant! We canoed to a floating trampoline in the sea where we jumped to stay warm! We then went to a little beach called 'Nun's Beach' where we took turns to climb though what seemed a big black pipe 'till we reached the 'Waterfall of Eternal Youth', where we each added a day to our lives!

Up next was the challenges! Where we competed in teams to gain Jewels. (To get off the mysterious Island....obviously) At 5ish we had our bags packed to hit the road for home.

Overall, it was an amazing trip! I loved every minute of it! It was worth every cough and sniffle!

Love, Caroline xx
