What a journey we have been on!
I always thought we had a strong sense of crew, we were always helping each other and holding each other to account. However, Outward Bound has more than strengthened that! We have created confidence, kindness, bravery and most of all friendships!
We have bonded as crew and made it to the top of the mountain. I will never forget this moment. We were tired, hungry, thirsty, hot and ready for home BUT they pulled together, held hands, pulled each other up the mountain. What a moment!
This photo captures a moment one of our members was struggling, the boys realised they were more capable, but most importantly nobody in crew gets left behind, so they waited, and we finished together!
We talked a lot about pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones and doing things we thought we would never do. One of the days we canoed for over 3 hours and set up camp on a bay at the side of the lake. The kids had to build their own shelters and they camped out all night, eating rations and star gazing! It was amazing to see them enjoy every moment and even though some of us felt homesick, we were in it together! Check out the amazing views and the 5 star accommodation!
I can honestly say that this trip bonded us more than ever and we are most certainly CREW!
