Whinlatter

We went to Whinlatter on June 20th 2012, it was great. There was a massive park, there were water screws, a basket swing, a climbing frame and much more. All this was so cool, but my favourite was the rope swing. Near the park there was a wooden monkey carved out of a tree and the funny part was it said on it Go Ape.

The ranger took us into a room, there were stuffed animals every where. The woman told us how they died, most died of old age. Some died because they were very sick - it was so sad – especially the red squirrel that died of squirrel pox.

Building huts was hard, but after we did them they looked so cool. But one was better then the rest because they used team work. There were many huts, some were good and some weren’t.

We all tried our best.

If I had the choice I would go back.
