This is the story, in pictures, of L's recent visit to
Zooropia, an arial assault course at Bristol Zoo Gardens. Especially designed for children aged 5 to 12, it's about 6 metres high, but surprisingly safe. L made short work of it, while I happily looked on from the safety of terra firma. not being a fan of heights! L really enjoyed it and is keen to go again. It's perfect for him, as it's a physical activity and he really enjoyed the fact he could do it on his own. This experience is brilliant for building confidence and self esteem and there were lots of adults taking part too! The descent is via a zip wire, which, apparently, is the best bit!

| The first rule of aerial travel, always check your equipment, preferably by dangling a small boy from it! |
 |
| Second rule of arial travel, always pay close attention to your instructor! |
 |
| And off we go! |
 |
| Are you sure you're not scared, son? |
 |
| Nope! |
 |
| Boing! |
 |
| Rather you than me! *shudder* |
 |
| Coming through! |
 |
| Waving at Scaredy-Mum! |
And the arial amble ends with an epic dismount. Putting many of the adults to shame!

ReplyDeleteThat is so brave! I don't think I'd even climb up, let alone make it across some of those bridges! #TriedTested
ReplyDeleteI think one for me to watch! My daughter would it though but I think my son needs to be a little older yet.
