Bridges, Screaming, and Elephants

Today was the adrenaline junky day of our entire trip, no question. After breakfast, we headed over to the Bloukran's Bridge to bungie jump. 14/16 of us girls did it while me and Kellyn cheered on the sidelines. We had a good view of the bridge and the jumpers using binoculars. Eventually we moved into the bar and ordered coffee, watching both the live video feed close up and running over to the ledge to see the big picture of the entire bridge and the jumper. Some people were crying, others quietly panicking, some jumping around to the music...it was a variety (they play loud, pump-it-up music on the bridge to psych people up). After that, me, Kellyn, Gary and Kim drove with Jenni and Kayla so they could sky-dive. That was cool to see because they were these little, screaming dots in the sky and they fell for about 30 seconds before they pulled the parachute. We ate lunch and shopped in a little town before heading off to the elephant sanctuary to hang out with the elephants! We got to walk around with them, touch them, and me and Kellyn RODE them! It was crazy! Last, we drove back and I'm helping Sara put pics of her bungie stuff on Facebook.
