I have a habit of saying yes, sometimes without thinking.
That’s how I found myself being shoved a pair of baby blue socks with the word Airhop printed on them in pink. Â I then sat through a safety briefing that encouraged us to have fun at the same time reminding us that said fun could potentially end in serious injury or even death. Â The last time I had a safety briefing like that, I was jumping out of an airplane at 13, 200 feet.
We were in Bristol at the world’s largest Trampoline Park.
My daughter thought it would be a fun thing to do while we were all down in Bristol. Â I wasn’t so sure. Â How much jumping can you do for an hour? Well, it turns out loads. Â And it’s tiring. And it’s fun. Â And if you’re an old fogey like me, you’re guaranteed to be sore the next day.
There are a variety of activities to do from obstacle jump to dodge ball to jousting to basketball and pit diving.
You can get your bounce on.
I didn’t think I was going to enjoy this, but in the end I did. Â It was great fun and most definitely a workout. Â I was thoroughly beat at the end of the hour. I had to crawl back to the car. Â When I got home, I collapsed.
Next time I might pay more attention to the questions my daughter yells from her room in the late evening of a random Thursday.
