I don't go
camping much but when I do I go with my family. The first time we went to the
forest which turned out fine, but the second and last one we went to a
rainforest! That must have been the most frightening thing I have experienced.
Our tent got a hole the first day, already an hour after we arrived there! We
had to use some tools from the first aid kit to fix it. My brother Niko and I
went in the jungle alone without supervision; that must've been the most
frustrating thing in my life. We found a couple of toucans and monkey which we
took pictures of with our phones. It was very wet in there so we had to use
some waterproof clothes and shoes. We didn't go far in but we did go in some
dangerous areas where there were no paths, just to take some photos. We got
stuck in a bush and tried to rush out. Immediately we had forgotten if we went
right or left so we had to go one way or the other, which we walked on for
about five minutes till we found a dead end. We had no service there so our
parents must've been calling us all the time! We quickly rushed back the path
where we met a crocodile in a lake and a ton of mosquitoes! We finally came
back and I was blissful to be alive, so were our parents. The rest of the
holiday I was happy and satisfied.
