It was scary at first, but after a while I warmed up to the rock water slide. Then, eventually I just decided to go. It was surprisingly slow in the first part. Suddenly it went super fast and I got sucked down the rock water slide. Before I knew it, I was under the water below the tumbling rapids. It felt like I was down forever but then I got shot up to the surface.
Still going down the river, there was this little part in the river that the current reversed. I went backwards up the river and saw a rope attached to the rock. I found a little foot ledge which made it a lot easier to get up out of the water. I jumped!
Then I went up and did it again. Then my siblings did it too. And I hope I will go back some day.
