Day 5 of the Batty Tour was filled with wet and trailing adventures. Starting from the treacherous rapids of a rocky river, and ending off with an adrenaline pumping bicycle ride through narrow, steep and muddy terrain.

The first activity we as the batty group encountered was Gorge-Walking. More than it just being a wet walk up a rapid river, it was a ice cold, muscle pulling, current fighting adventure. Many people thought black people couldn't swim... They were right. Okay well, the Batty group did extra-ordinarily well, swimming against a strong current, sliding in between huge rocks, jumping off high cliffs plummeting into the cold water. This is one activity that is not soon to be forgotten.

Then we started with the bicycle activity, I remember riding on a narrow bridge over an entire dam. Riding under trees, between thick bushes and the edges of a steep ledge. By the end of the activity we were tired, and beat up, but I was willing to do it again. Every single Batty learner will remember this day, each having a different story.
