Bungy Jumping in Queenstown!

One more thing to cross off my New Zealand bucket list!  Bungy jumping – yes, it’s spelled correctly here!  What a rush.  However, IF I do it again, I’ll do the highest one, which is also near Queenstown. 

The hardest part was walking back up the steps from the river, but it was so fun!  I had my own cheering section.  There were a bunch of people, from China I think, that were watching us crazies.  When I walked up the stairs, they were taking my picture, high-fiving, and cheering!  Great times!  Then I got to watch my son go off the bridge and get dunked in the water.  Now I wish I would have done that! 

It’s a great time and we drove to Queenstown, ate lunch, and drove out.  It’s a pretty large town and kind of a lot of traffic.  We are now in Te Anau at a hostel.  Our plan is to drive to Milford Sound in the morning, sea kayak, hike on the way back, and stay here another night. 

John is going to meet with a maths student from Dunedin who lives here in town after he gets off of work.  We met the aunt on our flight yesterday. 

Great times!  Take a look at the pictures tonight and check out the videos on YouTube!
