I did not dare participate in the Bungy activity. For some reason I have no desire to pay hundreds of dollars to jump off a bridge???
Our tour bus make a stop for a couple of hours at the Kawarau Bridge, the home of bungy jumping, so people could take 141ft jump. I went up onto the bridge next to the jumpers to watch. It was fun to watch the ones whowere absolutly terrified....
your heart almost skips a beat when you watch them on the way down.

| This is a girl from our bus and she is from Sudbury. The last thing out of her mouth before she jumped was "I'm so scared"....but she did it! |

| I had a bunch of time to kill so I went next door to a wine tasting room and restaurant. While I was sampling the wines of Central Otago I noticed this man walk in from the ajacent meeting room. This is Henry van Asch and he is the co-founder of Bungy! He took a bunch of his millions and purchased the winery that I was sitting in.....Cool! Oh, and he liked my Hello Kitty shirt:) |
