Gaisce Hike 2011 :) ! !

One of the best weekends of TY ! It began at 2pm when we left for Knockree. Checked our bags in and off we went! The hike took 2 1/2 hrs up and 1 1/2 hrs back. Our guide wuz Bill ! The teachers dat went with us were really fun, so therefore we had an amazing time ! ! ! The mountain was very steep but we all made it ! :L We were wrecked after it ! The weather was considerably good. It was drizzly and windy ! But we were roasting so we wouldn't have wanted it to be raining ! That night we cooked our own meals.... mmmn. Noodles and garlic bread :) We watched a movie too ! I cant remember the name though :/ haha. I think it was 50 something ? haha. My room mates were Laura, Zoe, Katie and Niamh :L We had to be in our rooms for 11pm. The next day we were woken at 8am. To finish off our Gaisce hike we did orienteering in the mountains, low ropes and archery. We did a total amount of 20km the first day so we only had to do 5km , but we kept ourselves busy. Our guides were Mick and Andre. We were divided into teams. We were team Mick. To finish the day we did teams building skills. The Gaisce hike was amazing and I am sure everyone will agree with me ! ! :L
