Sonshine Ranch
First I did horses riding. I then did the flying fox. I was high up. I felt I was flying. I did a rope swing .I saw a pond a littel one.That was the water confidence. I was so good I did everything without getting wet until I had to fall off the water wheel.

Kayaking
On the 29th March we went kayaking. We got to pick our kayak. I picked a yellow one.I am not a really good kayaker on my own.I got stuck lots of times.When we went under a pole I got stuck and I could not get back on my seat. At the end we played a game in kayaks. It was fun.I got tagged a few times.At the end of the session I got pulled out of the water.I really thought it was fun.I came 2nd in one race. I was happy.VH

It twisted and turned while I climbed up it .I was the 3rd person to climb up it .I also really enjoyed horse riding as well .We got to vault on the horse .On the secound day of horse riding we went round a bit of Sonshine Ranch .My horses were called Sauny and Piccasso.
when i did the wate rconfance course
When Josh and I did the wheel on the wheel on the water confidence course it was annoying because some people were very slow.When it was my turn I went for it. LT
My horse Candy.
At Sonshine Ranch we started our journey at the horses stable.I had a horse called Candy. She was brown with a little bit of white on her forehead.The next day I got a different horse. Its name was Joeli. She was a little smaller than Candy. She was pretty hungry.We had a walk though the bush and she grabbed a snack and it bit the horse in front on the bum.

Sonshine Ranch Horse Riding.
When we went to Sonshine Ranch,we were amazed at how it looked .The first activity that we did was horse riding.I got a horse named Mini Montie and it was white.It was named Mini Montie because it was the smallest and the cutest.
