I went bungee jumping twice today! I’m doing the Thrillogy, which is three jumps for a combo package, costing me a bit though. So the rest of the trip’ll be pretty low key. I registered this morning and then while Leigh did her thing, I went up to Kawarau Bridge and jumped 43 meters off of it for a nice wet dunk into the river. It was wicked! I got a nice DVD to prove it, so you can all see that when I get back.

Then got some groceries and ate a huge beef lasagna for lunch which I regretted later while standing on the platform of my next jump, the Ledge. It’s 47m over the side of a mountain and you’re harnessed in by the waist, so I tried to do a side flip which turned into a sort of flaying twist but it was awesome. And I didn’t vomit! Very happy bout that.

Saw two Scottish guys again, Darren and Adam, who I’ve been seeing periodically on this trip. They’re doing the Thrillogy as well. Tomorrow is the Nevis, 134m jump and then a bit of luging in the afternoon
