Hike and a half!!!

Today I woke up exited to finally be out and be active. Today was the day that we were to be led up the Table Mountain Range by a hiking guru Ivan. At the begining a few people were struggling and our team work was not visible at all. The terrain was rough and totally up hill for over 2 hours, tough at times and I have some awesome pictures to prove it. Once making it to the top the most rewarding feeling came over me as with every other hike ive done. This one was more special because it was a totally different envioronment then im used to. The rocks are different, the brush is different and the views are like nothing i can ever explain, completly breath taking. At the top we were told to find a spot and seclude ourselves from each other and think about the hike we had just completed. We were asked to think about which you believe matters more, the journey or the destination. How the hike relates to our life. We had an hour to just sit in nature and think about life, it was the most relaxing time of this whole trip that ive had, it was amazing!!!
The hike down was an adventure in itself, it was tough because a majority of the climb up was straight up. Some people were nervous getting down so it backed up a line which was difficult because for me it is harder on my knees to take little steps than it is to walk at a normal pace. We all got down eventually and I have some scrapes and a swollen knee to remember the trip oh and allong with the most amazing pictures of the whole trip. Today I learned that our group really has an issue with teamwork which is unfortunate but it will all be over soon so I can be back with the people that I work well with!!!!
Ill update the rest of the week soon. Boring day of meetings tmw. Maybe off to a real Braai with Donovan tomorrow while hes in Cape Town!!!!!!
Night,
