Today was really fun! So we went to The Challenge Phangan today which is Thailand's version of Total Wipeout. Well I can definitely say I would fail so badly if I went on the actual Total Wipeout show haha :P so it starts with you standing on a platform (pretty high up) and you have to hold onto this triangle handle that's on a rope and swing down into the water. My grip isn't that great at the best of times and it showed today - let go too early and bellyflopped onto the water ... Ouch!! My stomach still hurts now! Luckily it wasn't as bad as Lauren, bless her she had the opposite problem and held on for too long and hit her head on the wall on the way back - she's okay now though which is good :) after that I tried all the other parts of the course - didn't manage to complete any of them without falling off :P even face planted the red balls a couple of times haha! Later there was a giant cushion that you sit on the end and two or three of the guys that work there jump down from a platform and it bounces you into the air. I was pretty nervous to do it at first but then I thought I might never have the chance to do it again so I should probably give it a go - it turned out to be really fun in the end! I'm sure most of you have seen the video on Facebook already - graceful as ever ;) when we got back we were all pretty shattered but we got ready and went out for dinner - Mexican this time which was yummy :) think I'll probably have an early night tonight, used up all my energy!
