.,on wednesday the 2oth of september our ty year went to delphi which is in connemara we stayed for two nights.
when we arrived we ate our lunch we went to our rooms and then were split into two groups one went surfing we learnt about safety out on the beach and how to use a surfboard correctly and the other went high roping. we then had our dinner which was chicken curry which was not great. we then had our evening activity to help us bond as a group. we were put into a circle and a cereal box was placed in the centre we had to bite a piece off the box without using our hands and our knees could not touch the ground,this was very difficult. we then went for our supper which was a chocolate cookie.we went to bed at 10:30 and we then chatted for awhile.
on day 2 we got up at 7:45 we showered and went down to breakfast which was a choice of cereal or sausage,toast and beans,we got a bus to the mountains ans started our 17km hike,this was very challenging and steep but was it was a good bonding exercise. we stopped for 45mins to eat our lunch, after our lunch the walk was downhill so it was much easier.
we went back to the hostel after and had our dinner which spaghetti bolgnse and it was disgusting which was a big dissapointment. we had our evening activity after that which was a campfire it was great fun and another bonding exercise, we sand songs and told stories we went back for supper and went to bed as we were exhausted from our hike.
on our third and final day we went to breakfast at 8 and we went high roping this was great fun but also very scary at the same time! The last part four people had to cling onto a podium and hold hands and lean back and fall.
Overall I really enjoyed this trip it was a good bonding trip but the downfall was the food.
