Amansinaya: The Giant Soccerball and Rope Challenge

To get that team-building feeling, we divided ourselves into two groups for a mini competition: The Giant Soccerball and Rope Challenge.  The group who would finish the challenge faster wins the game.

The mechanics:
> each group will do the challenge separately (as there is only one giant soccerball).  They will be timed using Cha's ever reliable wrist watch.
> each group will have to roll the giant soccerball until it reaches the agreed place
> cross the hanging bridge
> cross the I-don't-know-how-it-is-called (please see the photo below)
> the time will be stopped once all members of the group is finish with the challenge
> the group with lesser time wins the game

Group 1: Ms. Con, me, Puree, Jenny, Kat, MJ, Michael, Ken

Group 2: Loida, Cha, Lei, Ressie, She, Brando, Kiboy, Donna

The winner is........: Group 2!
And the prize is......: The awesome feeling of being the winner :)

The next rope challenge is called The Tarzan Swing/Rope. I seriously think it should be the mud swing since you would fall on the mud in case you won't be able to cross to the other side.  Only a few of us had tried this and since it's the last stop for Pugadlawin Adventure Camp, everybody is excited to leave. As such, we have the fewest pictures on this side of the camp.

Amansinaya: Mudslide at Pugadlawin Adventure Camp

After my unsuccessful attempt at zipline and wall, we headed to Mudslide.  It is a 100-meter water slide (the water coming from those who are taking the shower at the top of the slide).  It is actually not the mudslide that I have envisioned.  But still, I have enjoyed it.

The Amansinaya mudslide is a big slide covered with plastic with water running in it.  I guess, it is called a mudslide because at the end of the slide, the dirty water-mud-fallen leaves-etc awaits you.  As in, yikes!

Bottom: She-Brando-Puree

Kiboy was not allowed to slide because of his eyeglasses.  He was required to remove it so he could slide but he simply can't for safety reasons :)

Note: Follow the instructions of the guide and wear the proper attire.

Amansinaya: Zipline and Wall Climb at Pugadlawin Adventure Camp

I have always imagined myself gliding through that zipline but the high 'launch pad' really scares me.  I can't even climb the stairs.  Bottom line is, I was not able to slide (but managed to get to the launch area).  It was so sayang!  Maybe next time. :)

Kiboy, on the other hand, had enjoyed the zipline so much while I enjoyed taking photos of him :)

Brave!

At the other side of the zipline launch pad is the 40 feet high wall for climbers.  Oh well, I did not attempt to climb that (I remember having muscle pains when I attempted to climb the wall during UPLB's Feb Fair '13) as well.  I just watched Kiboy be the Spiderman that he wished to be :)  Some of our friends also climbed the wall (even the kids!).

For those who wish to have a light to moderate adrenaline rush, this side of the Pugadlawin Adventure Camp is for you.
