We arrived at the legendary Condover Hall – it was mind-blowing! There were beautiful bushes and a dazzling mansion that was humongous. Our first activity was rock climbing. I was astonished that our really nice instructor said that nearly all the climbing walls at Condover Hall are 70m tall. After building up a big appetite we had dinner and it was the best dinner I have ever had – it was pizza! The night time activities were really fun and spooky- spooky gridstones and slimy tunnels. All before we went to bed. The next day we started off by climbing the gladiator wall, which included a lot of teamwork, followed by the high zipline. My favourite part was abseiling which everyone enjoyed. It involved whizzing down a high wall clinging onto a piece of rope. We had dinner in the evening, then we all did laser quest in an inflatable bouncy castle – I won two times. I woke up the next morning and we had our last activity which was buggy building. We split into two teams and built a buggy using two barrels, some wood and eight ropes. We raced each other down a hill and I nearly got run over! It was the best! We also went shopping and bought souvenirs for our buddies. Finally we went outside to play in the mazes that were built in a huge hedge. Sadly it was then time to go. So, we ate our packed lunch, said bye to our instructor and headed back to school. It was the best experience ever and I highly recommend that you go there.
