sabbats- sports climbing

Since weilin spam photos, i shall spam words...let me elaborate a bit on our interesting and funny and exciting sabbaticals...

Day 1: We climbed the 25 m wall...and the sun was shining on it...how great you think...the rocks, or rather, the tiles were blistering hot...we could hardly grab hold of it properly...sad...but still have to climb...so you either climb quickly or you just hang there and get your hands burnt...we were blowing our hands while trying to stay on the wall...hahaha...really can't take it...too hot le...
Then, as though it's not intimidating enough to find yourself metres above the floor and clinging on to some boiling rocks, one of the them decided to give way when we grab onto it...WHeeee, it went spinning away when i tried to grab hold of it...gave me such a shock...was cursing it...

Day 2:
More exciting...absailing...dear weilin was terrified...we were suppose to scale down this 18 m wall with a super nice background of a super huge swimming pool...we all enjoyed it trememdously, especially watching weilin...
She gingerly steps onto the edge, and then, her legs starts shivering...hahahhaaha...we were laughing like crazy....finally managed to coax her down...took about 5 mins....then at the bottom...we look down at her. Suddenly, out of the blue, ys nonchalantly said, "从这里看,玮琳变得更渺小..." OOPS...we all instantaneously burst out laughing...yusiang...shall vote this classic phrase as Phrase of the Year...nice one there....we really had a good laugh...

Then, we did bouldering...seriously fun stuff...get to climb upside down, though none of us manage to do so...and then the ice climbing part...me and weilin thought we looked like monsters using the ice axe and the funny shoes...forgot what's that called...to climb up a styrofoam-covered wall...all of us suffered tensed muscles after the climb...hee hee...

Anyway, it was fun la...we can now climb our own!!! Got cert... :D And it's certainly entertaining to see weilin's tensed up face plus shivering legs...
