It was INCREDIBLE!
We all woke up with hurrendous hang overs and i was absolutely DREADING the jump.. I felt so sick and tired.. I honestly thought if i did it i would vom all over myself! Haha!
But we couldnt pull out so off we went! There was only the four of us and this private car picked us up.. No minibus for us! Ha! It took agggeesss to get to the bridge and we were all sat in the car discussing different senarios and potential problems.. Like, retina dislocation, and the rope snapping.. It was a lonnngg journey! By the time we all arrived none of us wanted to do it!!
When we did arrived we got to see one lad do it first and when we were watching him i felt quite confident.. It didnt look that high.. Until he actually went. Omg! His legs went everywhere and he honestly looked like he'd just broke his back! Oh and his shoe came off! Ha!
But by then it was too late! Jamie (liverpool lad) got strapped up and went and did his jump, then Louisa (liverpool girl) went and did hers, so there was only me left.. I could hardly back out.. Tom was standing there trying to wind me up etc!
So anyway.. I get the leg harnesses strapped on, and jesus they are TIGHT! And frayed! I looked at them and asked the guy whether they were safe but if course he only spoke Spanish! Brilliant!
I walked onto the platform ready to be attached the bungee bit and WOW it moved! The platform extended out from the bridge and over the water and it rocked with every step you took on it! I s*** myself!! And that was before i was even at the edge! Haha!
I then got strapped to the bungee rope and was walked to the edge.
The guy then told me to put my hands in the air and lean forward..
He then counted to three..
When he got to three all i can remember is glancing down and thinking what the f*** am i doing this for..
I then fell.. And screamed. And swore. A lot.
It was amazing. The pull back wasnt half as bad as i thought althou i couldnt breathe when it did pull me back. And i fully went under the water.. Everyone else just touched it and i went completely head under!! I do think that was one of the best bits thou!! It was such a rush!
And it did instantly cure my hangover! BONUS!
Even thou i really enjoyed it I dont know whether id ever do another one.. When we got back we googled the bungee jumps that went wrong and its a good job i didnt watch that the night before! Ha!
So glad i survived and can still see out of both eyes! Haha!
Speak soon! Muchos love!

D.P.Ward You are nuts family trait I,m afraid.Nan
Deblique oh Claire ...brave and stupid, but living life to the full. I am so glad bungees were n't invented when we did our (modest compared to you) travelling as students! Hope you are going on to more sedate activities next!
