momentum climbing

one awesome thing about this vacation was that we had enough days that we didn't have to cram them full of activities.  we had lots of down time.  on this fun day, Aunt A took us to her climbing gym.  we love active activities!!  e ascended various routes 8 times, more than anyone else.

E helped to make sure i tied my figure 8 knot correctly before I belayed anyone.  i was more comfortable on the ground than the wall.

E & A encouraged each other to the top.

this is the one that i actually made it to the top.  the purple one - which is pretty much a ladder (but a bit of credit that it was the highest wall in the gym) :)  R next to me was going up a much more challenging course.
