Rock climbing and abseiling

On Friday for the element, we did Rock climbing and abseiling at Charleston.  On the trip there I was really excited about the rock climbing and a bit nervous about the abseiling.  We got there and started looking around we all got in a circle to listen to our instructors.  They gave us all a harness and a helmet we put them on and made sure they fit and the got in a square around one of our instructors and had a talk about the rock climbing then we started walking the track to the spot where we were doing it.  We got there and started practising how to abseil and how to set up the ropes for the abseiling.  When we finished that we went to start the rock climbing. I was fourth to do it.  When it was my go I was really excited at the start it was all about finding a place that you could start to climb easily I got to the middle of the wall and it got really hard  there was only one place you could get up and it was really thin I had to use my knee to get up there from there it was easy there were heaps of holes to use to get to the top.  once I got to the top I stood up I was so happy.  After that, we started doing abseiling when it was my turn I got hooked up to two ropes I was a little bit nervous.  I started going down it felt weird because I was walking down the side of a cliff once I had was off I went really fast and made to the bottom quickly it was really awesome. After that we had to go I was so happy and had so mutch fun I hope I can do it again sometime.
