Dear Travelers,
I couldn’t believe that I did Polar Plunge in the Arctic for
the first time in my life! I’m wearing a life jacket because I can’t swim, it
will save me from drowning and sudden shock. The moment that I step on the
diving platform and about ready to jump the guy told me not to wear it because
it is dangerous, I have no choice, I waited for the line, without thinking I take
off my life jacket and jump!! The rest is history!
Coming out from the water and making up to the ladder is critical,
I used every single energy to paddle myself and try to swim hoping that I could
make it. I can’t feel my body, all I was thinking is to save myself from
drowning and the moment I touched the handle of the ladder I feel my power,
excitedly climbing up and from the top of the platform I yelled from the top of
my lungs... YEAAHHH...
My fear of swimming suddenly got lost from the freezing cold
water of the Arctic along with the icebergs on the side. I still couldn’t
believe myself that I made it, I’m so proud. I will remember this for the rest
of my life.
Rinell :-)
