5.4.3.2.1!!!!!!
Last night i arrived in knysna at our volunteer house, it is awesome! There are 2 other volunteers with me vincent and dorus from belgium, and a girl called jo, i found out about a rather big surprise that was planned for on the way to addo!
This morning, we left for Addo at 9, there was time for a quick cup of tetly before we left to prepare myself. The car was packed, and something i wont forget traveling to Addo listening to abba! Interesting!
So there was a large bridge.....a company called"faceadrenaline"; i guess we can fit in time for a quick bungee jump!
We drove to the car park and went to look at the bridge/jump......216meters " i am going to do it....well i think i am!". I signed the confirmation and the 620 rand was payed.... it was almost time. Harnesses on....walk to the bridge.... id lie if i said i wasnt apprenhensive...not scared of heights but jeese its a big drop. So the 6 of us get onto the bridge....music playing crazy dudes everywhere who were awsome! "ok guys there's no specific order the first jumper is number 4" i look at everyone then relise the number on my hand...J4! thats me!!!!
i get roped up and later told ok ur ready lets walk forward!..... one dude on either side then literally; 5.4.3.2.1 BUNGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! As they counted down the last thing that was in my head was...i am about to bungee...i lent forward and was falling it was like slow motion for a split second.....how could i close my eyes...to miss such an experience....my eyes were wide open its so hard to explain the feeling.... i had both thumbs up the whole time... couldnt stop smiling! Its hard to describe how it felt.
Sometimes you just have to say YES to things or youll never do it, youll never experience it!. It was AWESOME!
