Extreme sports?

Well, my idea of extreme sports anyway (can you spot Hanna and Emma in the trees?).  Over the weekend, we were able to see the "real" Australia and meet some wonderful people.  Thanks to Elizabeth for letting us borrow her car and to the NSW Friends for letting us experience the Adventure Camp for Junior Friends in Wisemans Ferry.  It was an incredible experience that we wouldn't have had otherwise.  The girls were able to enjoy abseiling, canoeing, archery and high ropes.   Hanna is a natural and I can see her living in Australia and trying out all the extreme sports they have to offer.  Emma was amazing.  She was scared to death of the abseiling and high ropes and did it anyway.  She ended up abseiling (repelling down cliffs) 3 times, her panic lessoning each time.  Tessa did archery and canoeing.  She really wanted to do rock climbing but we got there too late to do it on Saturday (surprise, surprise but I can blame getting lost trying to get out of Sydney for that) and on Sunday everybody was having too much fun on the abseiling to do the rock climbing.  Marra tried to play Cricket and enjoyed Canoeing with mom.  She was quite good at keeping the paddle in the water ;-).  Unfortunately, we didn't have enough batteries with us so didn't get pictures of the abseiling or canoeing (little fingers removed the batteries from our bag before the trip) so we'll have to try to go again just for the photos!
