Forest Adventure

I went to Forest Adventure at Bedok Reservoir for my school field trip on the 20th of October. Although it was only a 2 hours trip, it was very fun.


When I reached Forest Adventure, my mind was whirling with excitement while chatting nineteen to the dozen with my best friend. The day had dawned crystal clear and cheery. After queuing up to wear the harness, we started the tree-top challenge! 


My class went for the kids course. Some parts of the challenge were tricky, though most of them were actually quite easy. My favourite part of the challenge was the zip-line. It was exactly like a flying fox. I fastened the harness onto another rope and pushed myself off the little area to stand. The zip-line was fast and swift while my legs dangled in mid-air. I landed on the sand-pit at the bottom of the zip-line and sand went inside my shoes.


After a short rest, we needed to walk all the way to where the bus was. While walking, it began to pour as if a river had been let loose. As we all did not bring umbrellas, we had to run as fast as our legs could carry us another 150 metres to where the bus was. We were all drenched when we reached the bus! We finally sat on the bus and went back to school. It was a tiring but wonderful day.
