Travis on Building Rafts at Camp



My group made a raft, which looked like a plus with three barrels and 5 sticks.
The sticks were really hard to tie together and we had to pull all the pieces tight before I tied all the knots. We had to tie lots of ropes at different angles so the barrels didn't fall apart when it went in the water. We walked around looking at other rafts after we finished we made a few adjustments because the one barrel kept on getting wobbly and slipping out of its place. We had to take it apart because we didn't have enough time to test it but it was hard work taking it apart because there were so many knots but they were really tight. so it was hard but managed to get it apart in time. And then we helped undo other peoples rafts group 2 raft was really messy and it was really hard to get apart but the barrels were really easy to get out. The raft took about an hour to build but that hour was really fun and we had lots of fun we finished our raft first and we had some time to rest. The raft never got to touch the water but it was still hard to build but fun at the same time I made new friends and got to know people better so overall it was extremely fun and cool to build it together. The raft making was fun and I had a lot of fun with other people.
