Pittsburgh MCG - Myiah - Day 4

WE DID IT!!!! Today we climbed Bunsen peak, a 4.2 mile strenuous climb to the top. Though Bunsen peak was no match for TEAM PAROLINI!! We finished the climb within 4 hours and 26 min and felt like champions afterward. When we reached the top it was absolutely amazing, the view was as if we were standing on top of the world. We had lunch up there and just basked in the glory of our accomplishment. After we headed back down the mountain to the bus we headed to Mammoth hot springs. It was an amazing site, the hot steam discharge, had turned the rock white. I thought it was snow at first but once I saw the steam coming off, I was like no snowball fights for me, haha! I got a gift for my mommy from the Yellowstone gift shop. I’m not going to say what it is because my mom reads this and I want it to be a surprise. Later on tonight, we will have a team building exercise and prepare to head home tomorrow. Before we head home though we have to present our topic, which should be a piece of cake for me I hope. Oh, one more thing we received carabineers with a sort of coin on it to mark our accomplishment and let us know we can do anything in life. What I’m going to do with it is put it on a chain or something around my neck and whenever I get nervous or scared, and think I can’t do anything, I’m going to rub it, to let myself know that I can power through and achieve my goal.
