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. She works at the airport and the company we flew with to Milford Sound.
Great times! Take a look at the pictures tonight and check out the videos on YouTube!
