Go Ape!


Hello again from the B's. It has been a long time since we blogged last. Unfortunately time is a bit of a luxury at the moment and something we are a bit short of.
We did recently, before the madness, make it back to Grizedale Forest and the scary scary Go Ape course. Grizedale, you may remember from an earlier blog, it's owned by the forestry commission and was the first of their forests to actively encourage recreational activities.



There are lots of walking and cycle trails as well as Go Ape.
Go Ape is a high ropes course through the forest canopy.
B1, B2 and our good friend (lets call him J) braved the Lake District drizzle for a day out in the tree tops.
After our safety and instruction lesson, 5 minutes of which hook to put where, we were let loose on the course.
 Rope ladders, wooden bridges and zip wires through the forest, adrenaline fuelled excitement.
It was a great day out and we made it out of the trees just before the sky opened and the downpour began.
We spent the rest of the day relaxing in the pub, telling stories of our bravery.

I know this blog has been short. Hopefully that means we can write them more often, and keep up to date.

Look out for the next exciting episode! 

Until next time, B1 and B2
