Class Lures

The hydro slide was thousands of meters long for my first ride. I wonder if the jump is sore? (Joel)

Freezing, deep, fun adventure. (Alyssa)

"I wonder what it looks like" Grace and I  said curiously" (Angela) 

The gleaming river, the nice warm sun, a beautiful day, the slide swishing in the light, I wondered what it would be like? (Thomas)

What would you do if you had to jump off a 10 metre high diving board into a cold gleaming river? I wondered if it would hurt?(Taine)
