Day 1 Kangaroo Valley Hike to Apple Tree Flat

So we have been up since 5am ready to venture from our home town to Kangaroo Valley. I am feeling excited but a little bit anxious but over all i am really looking forward to the opportunity. I wanted to take on board everything that Ian had taught me during class to prepare me for the trip. I feel that the tight bond i share with everyone in the class will get me through times where i am feeling vulnerable.
A particular moment that has really enatiled me to think is the first lesson about 'neuroplasicity' based on the brain trainning revolution. I am determined to allow my brain to let this occur over the field trip. I feel that i will take and learn more from the experinces and possess a more fruitful mind after the trip if i expose my brain to change and alteration. I am looking at it as a type of therapy to expose my mind to change and positive development.
So we have arrived at the Valley and are ready to begin our trip.

 Starting point :)

We were sent off into our groups and i am feeling confident. I have had many past experiences and i feel that this is a great start to the trip :) the group that i am in consists of people who i adore and communicate well with so i think this is a great start to the day. The walk was moderatley short and once we made made it little did we know that we would be arriving at a sublime lookout over a beautiful river and a ginormous dam. Was a rewarding feeling once we arrived.

After our small lunch break we were able to have some quiet refelction time where i am going to share my thoughts and experiences in my next blog :)
