Joe G on Dibba

day 1:
On monday 7th febuary 2011 year 6 went to musundam Oman. On the bus I sat next to Harry.When we arrived we had lunch before our first activity Our first activity was kayaking. I was in a boat with Cameron.  We had to kayak to a cove where we played games and were taught what to do if our kayak flipped . Finally we pushed our kayaks back in the shalows. When we had dinner then free time before bed.
 
Day 2 :
This morning we had tent inspection before breakfast.Our activity this morning was mountain biking. First we cycled to an area with wide open space and cool jumps. First we did bike skills on the jumps and then fun games . After that we cycled back to camp for a break. Finally we cycled to a rock with ancient carvings on it before coming back to camp for lunch. Our afternoon activity was trekking we climbed up a mountain and on the way we lernt about the 7 rules of leave no trace. When we got to the top we had an amazing view. When we came down the mountain we had to be carefull because 20% of acidents hapen going up,  but 80% coming down. Finally at the bottom on the beach we played fun games before going back to camp. After dinner our evening activity was to answer questions and do challenges, it was wikid cool. Finally it was time for bed.
 
Day 3 :
This morning we were supposed to be doing rock climbing but because of the rain we couldn't.So instead we did things like circle games, mistacle aboriginall numbers [which I eventually worked out],the trust fall which was awsome and a game where we had to work as a team to get through a spiders web like Lord of the Rings. Then we had lunch before our next activity. It was orientiering. We were taught how to use a compass to find flags and do fun challenges to earn points. It was really cool. After dinner our evening activity was a talent show, where people did some really good stuff. I sang the Avatar theme tune 'I see you'. When it had finished it was bedtime.
 
Day 4 :
Today we had to get up really early to pack and get ready for tent inspection before breakfast. After breakfast we had to walk to the port to go on a dhow cruise. There were really massive waves meaning the boat was like a roller coaster. Finally we reached a calm cove where we were allowed to swim in the sea. After that we once again had to cross the huge waves and long trail back to camp where we got on the bus to go home.
