May 16, 2016 - Today we were fortunate enough to experience zip lining
as well as high and low ropes course obstacles. We began the day with a nice
breakfast at Lake Junaluska and left around 8:30 a.m. with intentions to start zip
lining at 10:00 a.m. Around that time we found out that we were a little lost.
Luckily they were able to reschedule us to 1:00 p.m. We spent the next hour or
so traveling back to our intended destination to start our outdoor adventure.
Once we
arrived at Nantahala Outdoor Center, we had a quick lunch and made our way to
the high ropes course. We were all fairly surprised once we saw how high the
obstacle course was set up. The instructors gave us a quick rundown and then we
were off. Each individual struggled once or twice and looked to other members
of the group on how to complete the obstacles. With the courage from other
classmates we were all able to accomplish everything we put our minds to.
Without the trust of one another many of us would not have been able to
complete most of the things we attempted. The strong bond of this E-Term group
has allowed us to grow farther than just friends. In just one week we have been
able to lean on one another while also looking to our professors for guidance
and advice.
