Today
I met up with my friend Sophia. She is.. Well .. Pretty mad and crazy like me
and up for anything!
Recently
I have been inspired to get back on my skateboard, but after at least 5 years
my skill has drained away.
Therefore,
this was the goal of the day to learn how to skate again!
Amazingly
we both achieved this, but our journey wasn't simple.
We
decided to go on an adventure to find the inner skateboarder in us. And this
consisted of trampling around the English countryside (I know not that
adventurous). We were keen and ready for a crazy spur of the moment walk. We
clambered over fallen trees, through fields and even crawled under bushes!
Eventually we started to get blisters and thought this to be a very bad idea as
also my phone had run out of battery (it was our map). However we continued
forward! These fields are right in my back garden and I was certain that I new
the way, but somehow I had misjudged our position, resulting in us getting...
Lost. In the end we had to ask this lovely lady who lived in a cottage in the
middle of nowhere so we could get our bearings. If it were not for her my feet
would be hurting a lot more than they are now.
Fortunately,
we got home having learnt our lesson to only go on adventures when we have food
water and correct walking shoes.!! However, like I said by the end we both can
now skateboard (wobbly) making us feel like we achieved our goal.
