Anyone for Bungee?!

I did it!  I really JUMPED!  EYE can't even believe it!!
I was a big NO BUNGEE - TOO HIGH
Then I saw the bridge... And said, "That's not THAT big"
43 Meters = 145' or something
Cat talked me into doing tandem, you fall TWICE as fast
so I figured... 4 seconds...
I can do anything for 4 seconds!
I was fine, breathing - yoga style until...
We had to stand on the edge...
We didn't want to stall... I think the guy pushed us!
"shuffle to the edge..."  (pounding heart)
EYES squished shut - tight!
SCREAMING!!! 
Wait, that's not me screaming, HA!
It was Cat!  Aaaallll the way down!

then, looking around it was AmAzInG & beautiful!
Stars were dancing all around our heads, HA!
We got picked up by dudes in the raft, they were wearing creepy kidnapper masks, HA
We had a good laugh and then...
Had to hike like 400 steps back up!

Sweet AS!

Christchurch is a place of miracles!


Mayday!  
Christchurch on the S. Island had a huge earthquake last week, 
one week after I was there!!
Check out these pics post shaking and quaking,
LUCKILY - blessedly, no one died!  
(ok one man, from a heart attack)
More pics of the destruction!  

 
We had SUCH a great time in Christchurch!

We hit the night life at Boogie Nights and danced it up!
Ha!!
It was our 1st night on the South Island and our last... Amazing!  Loved our crew too!!

Downtown!

This song is the BOMB!
The happiest, most fun song on the planet right now!

Danni, our Gorgeous, Uber fun, Welshie S. Island NZ tour guide had the pre-release edge and played it like - EVERYDAY to get us PUMPED!
It's a Kiwi band, Kids of 88
and just released last week!
It's the ONLY thing getting me thru this day!

Listen... and Be Happy!

This is another NZ artist Brooke Fraser, LOoOoVE this song...  
woke up singing it one day too!
