Surfing
During two days of the Wambana camp we went on a surf camp (a day and two half days) and as the name would suggest we surfed on them. I wasent particularly looking forward to this (i dont like water and i was never good at surfing) but i was going to give it my all and try my best regardless of what difficulties i encountered. I started trying to stand up right from the start but i kept falling off the board. I managed to catch on of the highest waves we had that day (i was the only one as well) but i wiped out as soon as i got caught by the wave. I did end up managing to stand but this was purely by accident. One of my legs had slipped off the board while i had managed to stand up with the other one so i ended up standing up on the board with one leg (only lasted a couple of seconds though). The next day we had a whole day of surfing. It was fun despite not being able to stand up despite my persistance. Nothing particularly interesting (that i can recall) happened that day. On the last day we had incredibly strong waves. It seemed almost impossible to get pushed along by one without getting wiped out by it. For some reason i did incredibly well with this and managed to actually stand (twice!). Overall the surfing trip was incredibly fun and though pretty much everyone either wiped out or nose-dived once or twice as long as we kept perservering it was really good.
