**Looking upwards at the Abseiling tower I’m absolutely terrified! It looks higher than the sky tower from down here! In my head I tell myself I can do it but I’m not so sure. My legs start shaking like a baby’s rattle as I start walking up what seems like millions of stairs to get to the top. “Hurry up Niamh!” Alex shouts. I look to see that she is almost at the top of the stairway. I’m trying to hurry up but my feet are stopping me. I peek through the wooden gap to see the tops of the pine trees and lots of people down below. “Niamh!” Alex calls again. **
 * ”I’m nearly there! I’m so scared!” I shout back. **
 *  As i climb up the final steps my heart is pumping faster than ever before. **


 * I climb up onto the platform carefully and my breath is taken away when I saw how high I actually am. I step carefully over to the instructor who is waiting for me. “Ready?” She askes. **
 *  “Um yup.” I reply. She clips my on to a thick rope and tells me to stand the other way around. **
 * I listen to her instructions as I steadily walk backwards. I look down to see Alex halfway down the wall. Suddenly Bryony pops up onto the platform! She goes to the next Instructor and starts walking down the wall like it is as easy as anything. **
 * I take a deep breath and lean back as far as I can go. Carefully walking down listening to what the instructor is saying to me.So I don’t faceplant the wall I am so scared and my palms are getting sweaty as I tightly holding the rope, but I keep on walking. **


 * Suddenly,swish my legs fly off the wall! I push weight to get them back on and continue going. **
 * I am so scared but I no I can do it. The smell of mud comes through my nose and I realise I am at the bottom. My legs are still shaking as I put my feet down. It feels strange like I’m round the wrong way but I am glad to be back on the ground. **


 * “Was it scary?” Someone asks me. **


 * “Yes! But it’s worth it!” I say **
