Monday we drove to Fort Collins to go whitewater rafting. We were on the Cache La Poudre River. There were Class II, III, and IV rapids. I was afraid I would fall out of the boat, but after a few minutes on the river I knew I wouldn't. We were in a raft with the manager of the shop, Joe. He knew tricks in the river others didn't. There was also a family from Lawrence, Kansas with us. They were very nice. There was one point in the trip where I fell into the boat for no reason. That was kinda fun. In a place on the river called, Cardiac Corner, a woman lost her paddle. We all stopped and looked at her and our guide shouted, "Paddle! What are you doing?!" We all laughed because we weren't expecting that. There was a point in the river where we could get out and swim. I jumped into the water and floated down the river. It was fun. I didn't want the trip to end. I would love to do it again. We ate dinner in Fort Collins. When we got home we made Jiffy Pop over the campfire.
Cheese!
