Wednesday- I enjoyed Wednesday the most as we went to the dog section and the red arrows.
The dog section was really good we got to go see all the dogs that they had and they all barked really loud but it was really good anyway. I want to be a dog handler when I am old enough so I was really glad that we could look at the dogs and ask about them to see what they do on a normal day. We also watched then do a performance of what one of the biter dogs do in a real situation if it thought the person was a threat this was also really good as we got to meet the dog and see what it has been trained to do. Also the dog handlers were really nice and they all loved their jobs at the kennel’s which was really good. This talk made me want to go into dag handling even more as now I know even more about it and can’t wait to do it in the future. Here is our group photo at the dog section-
After or lunch we went to see the red arrows this was really good as we were allowed to get close to the red arrows before they started their performance which they practice three times a day.



Also before there performance they do a team brief so we watched the brief before as well. This was really interesting although it was hard to follow. Once the briefing was over we went to the top of the cliff so that it would be the best view of the red arrows as we were not looking up we were looking straight forward at them. I really liked watching them and I didn’t see anything go wrong really but to them there were things that went wrong.



After the performance we went back to the red arrows and met some of the team and then chatted to them on the way over to the de-brief. We only stayed in the de- brief for ten minutes though but it was good how they did it as they shouted out what they did wrong and what they did right which I thought was really good. Here is our group photo at the red arrows-

After the red arrows we went back to our flats to get changed for our tea and for bowling after tea. The tea was nice again I had a slush puppy with mine which was nice and cold and really nice. After tea we went to the bowling which was quite hard to find even though there was a big sign that said were it was! When we were in bowling and we had our trendy bowling shoes we started to bowl in groups of three. We had three sets 2 in which I came last and one in which I won. I really liked doing the bowling although I was really bad at it and only got a spare once which I was proud of!
After we went bowling we went to a bar and had a drink of coke while some of the other cadets played pool as I watched. After the bar we went back to the flats and started to get ready for bed and then we chatted for a bit and played cheat for a while. They thought I was good at lying.
