I traveled a lot with school and with my family. The most memorable excursion for me is when we went to the mountains of Aragats. It was very difficult, but we managed, it seemed to me that it would be easier. We were too tired to continue on our way. But we have conquered this mountain. We thought going down would be easier than going up. But we were wrong. At first, it was very scary to look down, and realize that we must go down from there. And because of the lack of oxygen, my head began to spin, and this made the task more difficult. Secondly, it started to rain, and then thunder, we already thought that it would not get any worse. But we got lost, we didn’t remember where we were going and there were no adults in our dreams. We were frightened and gradually froze and almost fell off the cliff. Well, then we found adults and everything was fine. Of course we were very tired, and on the way home everyone was asleep.
