Fall out of the boat that is !!!!Today was our Mystery Fun Day...Wendy told us over a month ago she was taking us on a Fun Day Adventure.....nice right?.....well, it just happened to be White Water Rafting! I was a tad nervous, but thought what the heck, an adventure....that was until I fell out of the boat !! Now Amanda says there was no risk of danger or injury but I beg to differ!......When we hit the rapids the raft went down sideways, I was at the bottom side of the raft going down first...the raft kind of bounced & I bounced right out with it !!!!! The water was freezing & knocked the wind out of me for a second, when I popped up I was hanging onto the raft backwards, my hat was falling in my face so I remember flinging it into the boat, I turned myself around to try & grab onto the side of the raft but the current was really strong so it kept pulling my legs underneath....I remember hearing Amanda (the guide) yelling, I've got you....so I knew she had my life jacket, I also remember hearing laughing...lots of laughing!!....guess who??...Amanda!( um, my friend ?? !! ).....she says she feels bad but I don't really think she does LOL!!.... my sandals also came off & my left leg was dragged along some rocks......the girls got me to shore & I was alive! Hallelujah!!.....it was pretty funny I guess. I have some nasty bruises on my leg but I'll live! The guide Amanda rescued one of my sandals floating in the river, & one of the other rafts saw the other one floating down the rapids & rescued it!! Oh, thanks Jenna for holding my hand while I was dangling in the water...even though I don't remember you doing it!!
We also all body surfed down river & through some rapids....some people were impressed that I did it after my "experience". Jenna, who just started working with us, somehow managed to miss the rapids on her turn...she was totally bummed!, then Wendy cliff dived off a 40ft cliff.....she's crazy!!....but brave....she did awesome!
Later Wendy had us all over for a barbecue & it was the perfect end to our day.....my friends rock!
We do have some pictures of our adventure that I will post when I get them...for now you can enjoy these random white water rafting shots!
