What an incredible holiday this was. The team spirit and encouragement throughout the holiday was so amazing!
We had endless fun on the canoes, splashing around and learning how to use the oars. We loved being out on the calm water. A HUGE well done to Adam who was very reluctant about the water but was the first onto the boat and LOVED it!
We spent a wonderful morning with the beautiful horses who let us clean, groom, feed and ride them.
We whizzed down the zip wire, whooping as went down! How brave we all were as we swooshed over the canopy of trees.
We egged each other on as we tackled the climbing wall. The support we all gave one another was just fantastic. We clapped and cheered and made sure we all got to the top! A gigantic well done to all!
Everyone loved abseiling, too. Lots of us did extremely well at facing our fears with everyone's help and support!
We had a brilliant bike ride around the lake in our specially made bikes. It was great to feel the gentle breeze on our faces. We even spotted some local wildlife!
We spent some time in the forest where we gathered around a campfire and warmed ourselves. This was followed by a cracking game of archery, where we did very well at hitting our targets.
We spent a day at Exmoor Zoo - and what a wonderful Zoo it is! We stroked the Alpacas and wallabies and watched the feeding of the otters. We saw a beautiful puma, cheetah, black panther - but we couldn't solve the mystery of the 'Beast of Bodmin!' After our day at the zoo, we stopped off in Lynmouth and had a scrumptious cream tea - what a treat!
They even brought the animals up to our centre on one evening and everyone got to stroke some cute fluffy animals. This was wonderful - a rare treat to be close to some animals that we wouldn't usually be able to touch.
On Halloween night, we dressed ourselves up and danced at the disco! I think we may have put the spooks into a few people - ha ha! What a great evening this was.
It was an action packed holiday bursting with adventure and fun. I think we'll come back next year!
