Watch the video first without the transcription  and the second time following the subtitles!

Hanna: I'm Hanna from Australia.

Diego: And I'm Diego from Mexico.

Hanna: And today we're going to be talking about adventures. Would you like to go on an adventure Diego?

Diego: Yes, I would love to go on an adventure, and I've actually ever thought about it since I was younger.

Hanna: What were you thinking about?

Diego: Well, I like the sea and I like sailing and I love my friends so I wanna take a huge boat, preferably a yacht around the world with all my friends and go to these exotic islands around the world.

Hanna: Oh, really, can I come?

Diego: Of course.

Hanna: Oh, excellent.

Diego: Would you like to come?

Hanna: I'd love to go on a yacht. I think we should go.

Diego: I think we should do it.

Hanna: Yep.

Diego: What's your adventure?

Hanna: My adventure? Mmm! I'd really like to go into space. I think that might be a little bit expensive though, so I think going on a yacht is probably a better idea.

Diego: I think so, but Virgin Airlines has those flights to space I think.

Hanna: Oh, well, maybe when I'm very rich then.

Diego: OK.

Climb Ouray, Colorado

Thanks to the strategic placement of a few hundred showerheads in the San Juan Mountains, the Ouray Ice Park is the most condensed collection of ice routes in the world (nearly 200). Head to Schoolroom for a feast of easy-access, top-roped hundred-footers, or to South Park for dozens more—all within 15 minutes’ walk of a warm meal and a warm bed in Ouray. Ouray Ice Park 

The South Park is a good place to take beginners and intermediates away from crowds of the Schoolroom. A five to ten minute walk along the ice park trail will lead you to signs designating the South Park area. Anchors are generally built from trees and ice screws or a combination of both. Some of the trees are a short distance away from the top of the routes and others are a greater distance. It is helpful to have extra rope or cord to build anchors here. Walk down to the base of the climbs in on the down riverside via a trail and fixed rope down a hill. The canyon is fairly wide here and makes for a nice place to hang out at the base of routes, preferably not right beneath them.
