Mt. Roberts trail hike
You know that quote,"Time flys when you are having fun"? Well I hate that quote so much because it is true. I didn't have that much fun on the hike and it felt like forever. We went up the Mt. Roberts trail. It was raining. We had to go up two big hills before the hike and people were already tired. Samantha and Emma were in my group. We decided to stay in the back of the group so we didn't go too slow and people didn't have to be behind us. I eventually lost my group. Samantha was in front of me and Emma was way back. I was hiking alone for the longest time. Everyone was in front of me. Once I stopped at an opening in front of trees and it was a really pretty picture. There was a cruise ship leaving. Too bad I didn't have my camera. :( But you know what the worst part was, when you are hiking and you look what is in front of you and there is a cliff which you have to hike. Well I keep going and got all muddy. Also, my poncho didn't do its job. Stupid poncho. Note to self: don't get ponchos. NEVER GET PONCHOS! I got all soaked. I also took a couple short cuts. strong> Someone mentioned that when people took shortcuts they could have took a couple steps to go around the shortcut but they rather save 10 seconds of their hike. Then, as I was getting up I saw the tram! It was like I died and came back to life! I went inside and I was actually one of the first people up there. I wasn't in back of the group at all. I was way in front. My friend Samantha was in front of me but she went back to find Emma. I was really sore, warm, and muddy. I just went inside and sat down. Then, I waited for like 45 minutes for Emma. She took forever. I went to go eat fish and chips and hot chocolate. I was alone for a long time. Then Samantha and Emma finally got back. Emma was in the back. Then we got to get ipods. yay! I got a purple ipod. Then after dinner we went back down and we got to take the tram. It was so squished. It was funny when people confessed that they were afraid of heights. Well, I just noticed I am not really talking about the hike now so bye!
