Story Time with Teacher Vanessa

ADA Twist, Scientist

“I really love the great outdoors, so going for long walks is something I enjoy doing on a regular basis. The one walk that really stands out was actually a spur of the moment idea that turned into a much longer walk than I expected.  It was sometime last March, and the weather was absolutely perfect for some outdoor adventure. 




There's a beautiful national park only a stone's throw from where I live, that is very secluded and a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. The park is full of tracks and trails that go through the jungle, as well as a small  mountain, which is famous for its wild monkeys and other wildlife.




As it was a spur of the  moment decision I decided to go alone, and set off about 6am, as the route I took was really off the beaten track, and was not going to be a walk in the park. Looking at the distance on google maps, I guessed it would take me about 3 hours to complete, but I hit a few snags along the way. The first track I took was completely overgrown, and slowed me down to a snail's crawl, and it took me almost 2 hours longer than I expected to reach the mountain.By the time I reached the mountain I was already dead tired and I remember I had to spend some time sitting under the shade of the trees to catch my breath, and decided the best thing to do was call it a day, and make my way back. It was also now getting very hot, and i was already covered in sweat, which was going to make the walk back even harder.




Although the walk was totally exhausting, and left me dead on my feet, I did in fact enjoy most of it, especially the beautiful scenery, and the feeling of being at one with nature. However , I think next time I should maybe  plan my route a little better, and be better prepared.




Thank you …”
