That was fun. Need a whole lot more hand and arm strength but a fun first climb. Instructor a nice young man, Ben, who climbs like the rest of us walk.
I learned some knots (Got it!)
Learned to set up a belay with their gear (Got it!)
Belayed him (No problem - rather surprisingly)
Climbed a bit (Some problem but fun)
Repelled down (Easy and fun)
Got tired and got anxious about Pip in the car (sunny and though she was in the shade... I fretted).
So all and all a great experience which I plan to repeat.
