“Keep Calm and Climb on...” (Said everyone watching me
climb at the show...LOL)
Hello
Everyone,
This past
weekend The Outdoor Adventure Show was held at the International Centre. Now, anyone who knows me, will say you went
to a show that has the word: “Outdoors” in it?
LOL. Ok, so I am not a camper and
I’m scared of water, and yes, I am terrified of heights. However, when I saw the advertisements for
this show, I was really intrigued.
When I arrived
at the show, I immediately saw a booth that was offering kids the option to
participate in a scavenger hunt. The
scavenger hunt allowed kids an opportunity to win prizes while learning about
the great outdoors. I was impressed immediately. It’s always nice when events have games and
fun things to do for the kids.
All I could
think about was that Zip Line and the Rock Climbing being offered to guests. As we walked over to the Zip Line, I was
trying to convince myself it wasn’t that high but I AM TERRIFIED of
heights. Although, it did not look that
high, to me, it was like starring at mount Everest. I figured, hey, if I can rock climb
successfully, I will face my fears and try Zip line too. Guess where we went to next? LOL.
Rock Climbing
looked easy breezy, ya right. LOL. I
stood there and watched all the kids climbing this wall like they had no
fear. I on the other hand, had
fear. Audrey made it to the top. This little girl was fearless. She gave me hope, that I too could climb this
wall. So, I want to congratulate Audrey
for being a true champion. I tried to
climb the wall, I really did. I suited
up, put on the helmet and started my climb.
They say when climbing, “Don’t look down.” What does Niki do? Yes, I
looked down. I know I’m stubborn. As soon, as I saw I was getting higher, I
wanted to just come down. Oh, I came
down all right. I fell right on my butt. LOL. I
did actually like it, until I looked down. So, yes, try Rock Climbing, and next
time I will try Zip Line too. Ha-ha.
Now, I have to
tell you about YOGA FLIGHT!!!! Oh my God! I love yoga but this was out of this
world. Thank you, Slade for helping me
try this fabulous yoga. It was amazing. I
felt like I was flying. I never trust
anyone, but, I trusted Slade. LOL. I felt calm, free and most of all relaxed. Sky and Slade, you guys made my day!! I can’t
wait to try yoga flight again soon.
I had an
amazing time at the Outdoor Adventure show.
I even got to sit on a Motorcycle again!
Thank you, learning curves for trying to convince me, I should get a
Motorcycle license. LOL. Maybe, I will come by one day soon.
I need to quickly
mention the food. LOL. You all know by now, I am obsessed with food.
The show, does offer samples of
different foods. I enjoyed the cheese,
hot sauce, peanut butter and chopped Kale.
The Kale actually tasted like Rapini. And that my friends, is my Italian mention for
the day.
I am already
looking forward to next year. Thank you,
Rachel and to the Outdoor Adventure show for my media passes. This is an
incredible show and next year, I will conquer my fear and get on that Zip line. Toronto, make sure to go to this show the
next time it is in town! In fact, the
show is now heading to Vancouver. www.OutdoorAdventureShow.ca for
information. Until next time boys and
girls, “remember, to always just be yourself, it will eventually one day pay
off...”
I saved the
best for last, my pictures!!!
