I don't have that many fears, but i do have one major fear. White water rafting. While on this trip i decied to man up and finally conquer this phobia of mine. So i got onto the bus and drove to Cundinamarca. As i got out of the bus i felt my legs tremble from the idea on being on intense rapids and paddleing for my life. once i got into the guide office i found my instuctor. He assured me that my fears would be gone after his teaching. As i put on my gear, another family entered. The intrustor weclomed them in and got them started like he did for me. I realized that i couldn't paddle a boat by my self. So i would have to ride wih my new aqantience. I not only had my life in my hands, but this family as well.
going down the river
After we prepared we were off to our boat. we first larned how to pattle and all the tenical aspects of being a white river rapter. Then we put our boat in the Rio Grand, and i looked down and saw my legs shacking. This was the testing point and was time for me to control my fear. We got in and prepared to go. At first the water was nice and calm, but then it changed. The water started to get faster and faster. My heart beated like no tomorrow and all i could do is pattle. This was the battle between life and death. After a while i started to get more confident and i owned that river. I felt like Posiden and i controled the water. Then when it started to get to the climax, it started to come an end. I was depressed and wish i could go again. Now i ended up in the city of Fonce and got back onto tehe bus with my wet cloths and a new sense of pride.
