Adventuring at Cape Greko


We wanted to make a new outdoor video for the business at Cape Greko, and we needed to get there early before the wind got so strong that Sean can't be heard over the buffeting on the microphone! So 5.30am saw us all in the car, heading off in the dark to Greko. We arrived 6.15, sun was just up, and we got videoing.

Then it was playtime! Cara (8) decided that today she would do 'The Jump' from the cliff top into the sea below. It's about 8m, with a BIG splosh at the bottom.


She took some time to talk herself into readiness, and caught me (camera operator) unawares and I didn't get the whole jump (see video below). Then we swam in the sea, looking at scores of fish. Ronan took a tumble on the rocks and scraped his hands and feet and we finished up with a bee sting on Cara's hand! It was time to go! We all agreed it was a grand day out.

Other uses for climbing equipment!


I did wonder what was going on when Cara (8) and Sam (5) went off into the field across the road with a bunch of Sean's climbing equipment. Soon, I responded to yells of 'look what we did' and found one of the garden chairs swinging from an olive tree competently suspended by slings and karabiners. Sam is even wearing a helmet!! This is a lovely old tree, with lots of hidey holes for lizards.
