The first stop on the journey was the National Mining Museum near Wakefield. There was lots to find out about the history of coal mining. After going down the mine we were all hungry. There was a nice park were we could sit to eat our lunch.

Photography was difficult in the Laser Zone. Some tried Archery. There were some surprising results in Aeroball.

 

Tuesday was a very full day with 6 different activities.

Aeroball was probably the most tiring activity. But you had to have steady arms for archery. There was a competition to see who scored the most. We didn't forget to celebrate birthdays!

In the evening Elisha and the other leaders organised a wild disco. Everyone supported their friends on the way up but it the end there was only room for one at the top. Back on the ground the group encouraged their friends. Apparently coming down was the best bit.

It rained on Monday night so the nightline course was VERY muddy. This group didn't realise what was ahead! It was important to listen to instructions before getting on the quad. Everyone had lots of fun.

 

 

 

A DVD of the visit will be available within the next couple of weeks.
