Climbing and Abseiling

After all that effort climbing to great heights, there’s no better feeling them abseiling back down. It’s surprising how it takes so long to climb and is then only a few jumps to the ground. If you want to skip the climbing part there are sometimes options to just abseil after you’ve walked to the top. There is quite an adrenaline rush as you lean off the edge of the top but you’ll be proud you’ve managed to do it. Climbing and abseiling can also be done whatever the weather, when it’s sunny there are outdoor rocks and cliffs, if it’s raining there are always fake indoor rocks. It make seem scary but with all the ropes even if you panic and slip, a qualified climber will be with you holding the other end of that rope so you can catch you breath before carrying on again when you feel able to.

Look out for Notices with a Difference!

Wherever you are, why not look at the signs around you. You might be quite surprised by how clever and whitty some of them are. Others you could wonder how people came up with them!

“Do not give lighted cigarettes, pieces of glass and plastic, chewing gum etc to the animals”

“Do not tease the animals, teasing means to … poke the animals with a stick or umbrella”

“Caution, this sign has sharp edges”

So give it a go, and look more at signs wherever you are, let me know if you find some good ones!
