Jungle Trek and Beach Altafulla
























Today I went to the Jungle Trek in Tarragona, Spain. The jungle trek consisted of many different obstacles done up in the air. There are many different levels in which you can start most people start at the beginners which is blue, I was following Ronak and Kylee little did I know that they were going to the advanced part of the obstacles. We started and I saw the height of these obstacles, I was scared as hell but I had no choice but to go because the only way you could get to the ground is by going forward. We did three colors orange, red, and brown, which are the hardest. I ziplined backwards having to pull myself across, I ziplined forward swinging through the jungle, I crossed bridged with only a rope to hold onto, I tightroped across many the jungle many times. It was very fun and I did things I thought I couldn't do but I accomplished them all especially my fear of heights. At one point my ziplining rope came undone while I was ziplining because I had gotten scared so I was holding on to the two safety harnesses and the zipline thing and I accidentally pushed the ziplining thing in and it came undone so it was open but I was still going. I had never hung on to something so damn hard, I was not going down not in Spain. Let me tell you when your scared you do things that surprise the hell out of you. Overall I liked the Jungle Trek and the moving trees we had to stand on  to get from obstacle to obstacle. After the jungle trek we went to a nearby private beach called Playa Altafulla. The beach was gorgeous and very relaxing. It was the first time I had set foot on a real beach and by the Mediterranean Sea. I did end up getting a stripe on my arm that is sunburnt, so now I have one random stripe on my arm.
