My camp writing

Alright quiet!!!,screamed mr Henderson,as he was reading out todays camp activities.

Mr Henderson Then read out group ones activity which is my group.Just the sound of Abseiling made my heart race like a race car speeding down the racetrack.Then I suddenly realised it was pouring with rain which will make it very slippery oh no I’m going to fall down.

“Hey guys how are we all my name is steph and you may of remembered me from high ropes but today i'll be helping with abseiling”.After steph explained everything it was finally my turn I got ready to climb steph shouted climbing.As I began to  climb my heart was racing then I started to get the hang of it a started to go a lot fasted I started to think this isn't as bad as i thought i'm happy I climbed because I wasn’t going to climb.Next minute there was a big bit sticking out of the tree I couldn't seem to get across it I started to panic with fear but I didn't show it.

Once i was down I felt so very happy Steph then asked me if i'd like to go again I said yes please but then I never got another go because we were out of time. When I was trying to get out of my harness  I slipped into the mud everyone laughed including myself.
