Water Fall Rappelling

THAT WAS THE MOST FUN I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!! I will bring my kids here in the future to let them have that much  fun too! wow! it was  awesome

One thing I learned

One thing I have learned about myself is i can do anything i want within reason. From my favorite bible verse, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 1:14

Favorite part

The best part was definitely the crystal clear morning when the volcano erupting. It was definitely a highlight.

Me

I learned that I do not like snorkeling because the water was really salty and tasted bad. It also got in my eyes and burned them.

the one thing I learned about myself

The one thing I learned about is I am really scared of swaying bridges. The very last zip lining platform was one thing I overcame. I am really proud of myself.

What I Learned About Myself While I Was In Costa Rica.

      I learned that I over came my fear of zip lining It the highest and longest lines on the zip line. It was very fun after I did them. I did them with a tour guide but it was still very fun.

What I learned about Myself

I learned that I am lucky. After seeing Costa Rican houses and meeting people who weren’t  as rich as me, I learned just how lucky I am to have a nice house and how lucky I am to be going on this trip. This was an awesome trip and I wish I could do it again. –cooper hess

What did I learn about myself?

When I was getting ready to travel to Costa Rica, I only expected to have fun and meet new people. But as this trip comes to an end, and as I look back on all of the adventures of the week, I have actually learned things about me that I didn’t know. I learned that I am able to be more responsible for myself and others. I made the decision today not to go rappelling because I had a fever this morning even though I was really looking forward to it. I also tried to include and comfort those who needed it throughout the trip. I also made sure that my roommate and I got up on time. This may not sound like a big feat or epiphany, but it is an important realization for me in the future.

What i learned about myself

I learned that I can over come any of my fears of new stuff by just trying it and that the easiest way to over come a fear is to enjoy yourself while trying to overcome it.

What I have learned

 

During this trip I learned that If I put my mind to something, I can do it. When we were zip lining, I was a little nervous. i told myself I was safe, and I wasn’t scared.

Outlook on the trip: what I learned

I learned a lot of things about myself this trip.  One of them that stands out is my new skill to wait things out.  Before this trip, I would be so scared to go on things like big rides and heights.  Sometime, I would almost back out, only to be pushed in by my friends and family, coming out loving it.  This week, I would have one small feeling in the bottom of my stomach, for things like zip lines, rappelling, and the bridge on the night walk, but I would not be feeling like I didn’t want to go on.  I was feeling like it would be the adventure of a lifetime, which it turned out it was.  I wasn’t about to turn around and go back, but zoom straight to it, eager for the experience.

Snorkeling

I learned a lot of things about myself during this trip. But one thing that stands out is my newly found love for snorkeling. When my group went snorkeling, I thought it would be dull or boring at first but when we started to go out, I was really surprised. The coral reef was beautiful and the fish we so exotic and strange. It was amazing. That was one thing that stood out of what i learned about myself during this trip.

Learning

Something I learned on the Costa Rica trip is that if I really want to I can conquer my fears. I can control it and have a fun time anyway. So I ended up having an awesome time at Costa Rica.

fear is not an option

I learned over all that fear is not an option. I faced my fear of heights and overcame it with rappelling and zip lining. I’m really glad i did cause i have a GREAT time!! I will tell people in the future to go on discovery trips!

What I learned about myself

I learned that I am only afraid of heights on swaying bridges up high. There was this one bridge that was really scary. I loved the zip lining and repelling. I learned that I am not really afraid of heights.

Day Seven

 

Wow! Rappelling was great today. I got soaked in all of the waterfalls and had a very good time.
