“Do you trust me enough to join me on a wild weekend?” Adam had asked.
Lucas had thought and decided that he did trust Adam and hoped he hadn’t made a mistake. A wild weekend could be fun, or, if it involved caving or coasteering, it could be a total disaster. But if he was ever going to move forward then he needed to start trusting people.
Which was how he came to be paragliding in the Brecon Beacons. He had to admit that the sensation of flying was amazing, and something he wouldn’t have missed for the world. The views, as they flew over the national park were breath-taking. Once they had returned to land, Adam had insisted they get into the car and head off to their next destination.
They had stopped briefly for a picnic lunch, before starting off again, Adam insisting that they shouldn’t eat too much at the moment. Their destination turned out to be Penrhyn Quarry and the fastest zipline in the world. With more amazing scenery and a total adrenaline rush, Lucas had to admit that it had been a brilliant day.
The following morning, Adam insisted they get up early and once again they set off, heading this time to the coast.
“You’re okay in a boat, aren’t you?” Adam asked.
“So long as it’s a reasonable size, or possibly a rowing boat on a municipal lake,” he replied.
Adam seemed satisfied with the answer, so Lucas tried not to worry. They parked up and joined a group of people on the quayside. Shortly afterwards they embarked on a boat and were heading into the Irish Sea. There they spent a couple of hours spotting dolphins.
Lucas knew he was grinning from ear to ear and didn’t care. It had been a marvellous weekend and had confirmed he had been quite right in trusting Adam.
