Failed adventure In the childhood my parents often sent me and my brother to a summer camp. It’s better than staying in a dusty and stuffy city. In that place such as a camp always happen many interesting things. Walks in the forest, scary stories near the fire, building the huts – these are the true adventures for a child. Once we with friends decided to go beyond the camp’s territory. Of course it was forbidden, and if we were caught, we would be deported back home immediately. But curiosity and sense of adventure moved forward. It was impossible to go through a main gate because of guards, so we decided to climb over the fence. The territory of camp was big and after some searching we found a suitable place. Overcoming the obstacle, we were standing on uncharted land, in anticipating of new discoveries. Looked around, we realized that we were in some pit. There was dark and unfriendly. Suddenly something was buzzed near my ear. Then again. Looked at my friends, I noticed a bee on a shoulder of one of them. In the next moment I looked at my jeans and saw six or seven bees on them! We were next to the beehive! We screamed and run. Climbed back over the fence we were running as crazies, brushing of the stinging insects. Arriving in our room, we found that we were bitten by dozen bees. Legs and hands were swelled, everything was pained. So, thus ended before it started our adventure. Maybe the fortune saved us from a real trouble, and returned us back.
