Day 4 of Batty tour 2013

What a day!

Our activities included:

- Dry slope skiing: fun was had by all! All our guys mastered the slope and eventually skiied from the  
   top of the slope and Elaine did very well to represent the girls at the top of the slope. The other girls
   enjoyed the skiing activity and we all had some good laughs at all the falls.

- Abseiling: Batty tour is not just about seeing the world, it is also about seeing ourselves. Today one of
  our Battys faced her fear of heights and abseiled down what must have been 30m of rock face.

- Ruins: On our trip back home from abseiling, Raphael suggested this sight. We made a stop and
  soaked up the beauty of the surroundings.

- Frank Bruce sculpture trail: The teachers surprised the kids with an afternoon hike, which took them
  into the world of art. But a special kind of art. Frank Bruce did sculptures of wood and granite, and
  along the trail we saw a number of his works. Walking back home at 20:45, the sky is blue and the
  sun is shining.
