The second day of our trip started early in the morning. My group got up at around 7:30, all because one of my friends got up early in the morning. We then spent the next 30 min packing up. Around 8:00 it was time for breakfast, the whole grade went down to the dining hall for breakfast. Breakfast was probably the best meal we got at Blue Mountain.
After breakfast, we separated into our groups to do our events. Our group had mountain biking, so we walked to the bike rentals. There, we got our bikes. We then rode our bikes to the gondola. Using the gondola we got our bikes to the top of the mountain. We then started riding one of Blue Mountain’s many courses. After a bit of riding, it was actually much easier than I thought. Even though most of us were having a good time some of us fell.
After the long ride, our group had a short break. Unfortunately, we found out we didn’t have a break and we were supposed to go to the Apex bag jump. However, since Mr. Barwin went to the hotel we didn’t have a teacher to accompany us. We didn’t get to go to the event until Mrs. Biniki came along. The bag jump event was actually really simple. There are four platforms, each one is higher is higher than the last. In order to go to the other platforms, you have to first pass a test. The test is also really simple, you just need to successfully jump to the prior platform. After everyone took their turns, it was time for lunch. For lunch, we had pita pit. Lunch wasn’t really special, in addition to our pita, we had a bag of chips and a drink of our choice.
After lunch, it was time to go back to school. We grabbed our stuff from our rooms, and we headed downstairs to the lobby. In the lobby, our grade was separated into two groups. Each group got to go on their own bus. This time on the bus ride back to school, we had a lot more space. After a long bus ride, we eventually made it back to school.
Overall, it felt like we did less than yesterday. For example, the grade didn’t get free time like yesterday. In the end, the graduation trip was really fun. We did a lot of events that were really enjoyable. Some of these events were zip lining and the bag jump. In the future, I hope to go on another enjoyable trip like this.
Really? You enjoyed the zip lining. Do you remember ziplining through rainforest canopy when you were about 8 or 9 years old? You should watch the video of that zip line trip.
