The adventure

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.
