climbing a mountain

I went and visited my aunt and uncle who were staying in Mount Maunganui. So basically, I didn't live the backpacker life for a week, I had my own bedroom, which my uncle was concered that I wouldn't be able to sleep because there wasn't 7 other people sleeping in the room with me, but I think the biggest highlight had to be the fact that I had my own bathroom. It was nice to relax and have some privacy again.

But, as I was there I tried surfing. I stood up on the board for about total of 10 seconds. I was able to get up a couple of times but I fell down a lot as well. I will try from time to time, but I think I am going to move to close to a beach where there is some good surf anytime to soon.

But, going around with my aunt and uncle, I realised that my aunt loves high places. I think we went to about 5 or more look out points. One of the look at points was climbing the mountain. Now, I didn't think it was going to be a problem, but about half way up, I started to get a little scared seeing that it was a very narrow walk way. At one point my aunt was turning around to see how my uncle was doing and she said that my hand was grasping onto the wall, and my face was white as ghost. But I kept on going and I made it to the top, which I cant remeber how tell it was.

But, here are two pics one from the walk up and the other from the top of the moutain
