3 sporty girls braving the strong winds and scaling up the rocks in the middle of the sea.
I simply love this sight.
Yup, you get to try out rock climbing when you are on board #QuantumoftheSeas and we were so thankful we managed to do it on our third try - it was after a rain on our first two planned sessions and they had to close the wall as it was wet.
I tried it twice too and that is how I totally understand that it is not an easy feat to do. You need lots of armpower, courage and determination in order to reach the summit and that is much easier said than done. Not to mention that the winds are so strong and howling with every step you take which makes the journey tougher.
So while it is very easy to cheer for them from below and even tell them which foot or which hand to place where, it is much harder when you are up there using every ounce of the strength you can summon and just trying your best not to fall.
I saw how my girls got stuck halfway and yet hung on and tried to overcome what was ahead of them. I want them to know that I am proud of them for putting in their best effort even if they did not reach the top. It's already an achievement in itself for the big sister who has a phobia of great heights and for the little sister who did not let her petiteness get in the way but instead tried to leap up and reach for one rock after the other.
Rock climbing is a great way to instill resilience and teach them that it is not always easy to overcome the obstacles in front of you. However, if you do not give up and keep trying, one day you will be able to reach the bell and ring it.
Thankful for this opportunity to learn a valuable life lesson even though we were on holiday enjoying ourselves. Hee.
P.S. Rock climbing activity is included in the cruise package and complimentary for all guests to join in. Kids have to above 6 years old to try. Shoes are provided but if your child has small feet like Ariel, do wear your own covered shoes. Comfortable pants or shorts are advised. Have fun!
