Payette River Rafting

We drove to Idaho. We parked in Crouch. There is a little creek that flows through our camp ground it is called the Payette River. We built a sand castle Cair Paravel. Then we went river rafting. There is a white bus ?, 4 boats ?, and 7 rapids. The deepest part of water ? was 80 feet deep! 3 people rode the bull which was the front of the boat ?. Then we had pizza ? on the campstove for dinner ?.I liked the camping trip!

Loving the ride!

Our camp site had a stream in front of it. We played in the stream. The stream was warm and cold. We played house and we built a sand castle. The castle’s name was Cair Paravel. I was the queen of the castle with a stick. I told Esther and Jadon what to do.

   I thought that the white water rafting was super fun. The types of rafting that we did were class two and three. We got on a bus and went 8 miles up river. Then we got off the bus and into the rafting boat. You put your feet in the boat and you sit on the side of the boat everyone had a paddle except for Rahab. Our guide’s name was Gary we were the only people in the raft but in a group of four rafts. When we went down the first rapid it was the biggest. Nobody fell off on our boat, but the boat behind us three people fell off their boat. I never fell off the raft, but on some slow spots I chose to jump in (it was really cold). Our guide asked if anyone would like to sit on the front with there legs hanging out. Which is called bull riding. I did it first it was really fun and I got really wet, but it was fun. Some rapids were names like white water 101 and others like Mike’s hole. I really like river rafting. I think that I would like it even if I did fall off, because it is just part of the fun. But I can’t say that because I have never fallen off.
