Climbing at the Beach

Nancy's group went to the beach to climb on the rocks and guddle in the rock pools. The journey in the minibus was lots of fun. Reuben kept us entertained with his observations on life, the universe and everything.

When we arrived we adopted a friendly dog which Bec named Cliff who wanted us to endlessly throw things for him to catch. The waves and the views were spectacular and we all managed to climb up and belay down 2 routes, one of which was called Cornflake Wall. Haseeb, Reuben, Ali, Ayden and Declan were in one group with myself and Ben and Wenrong, Bec, Lin, Yujing and Sam were in the other with Nancy. We all had to climb up to a clip. There were some very good climbers, for example, Ali and Lin and some of us like Reuben and myself had to conquer our fears but felt great afterwards about doing so. Haseeb got stuck at one point and did some spectacular climbing to reach the top.

In the rockpools we saw some hermit crabs, anenomes, guppy fish and a baby sea urchin.

On the way back I was treated to a debate on who was going with who to the disco and some truly terrible jokes.

Looking forward to the disco tonight.
