kristy's travels
I was up early again chasing my latest bit of excitement! first was the shotover jet boat...............basically speeding through tiny canyons doing 360 degree spins! we were so close to the rocks it was just ridiculous. had loads of fun but after the bungy its hard to get too scared!
at 11 i was off to do some hang gliding...now this was more like it! i thought i would never be scared again.............not true!!............ after running off the top of a mountain and praying the wind would hold us up i realised there are planty of cool things still to do!
it was ssooo much fun gliding up and down...and i got to steer!!! the landing was funny as you basically drag along the ground..............one of the others landed in a cow pat though......and you dont really want to drag through one of those!!!!! she was stinking!!!
well i arrived back at the hostel and realised i was all alone...........and no one had arrived in my dorm so i was the only one there too......arrrggghhh!! nevermind.......onwards and upwards to the gondola!
i went up to the top of the gondola and wrote some postcards while it started to rain! saw the most amazing rainbow and then the sun came out!!!! yay!! this was my chance to do the luge!!!
its basically like go-carts without motors that speed down a tiny track on the edge of the mountain! half way down i cracked up laughing as i realised i was all alone going down this little track in new zealand...after having the most amazing month of my life!!!
well right now i am writing to you all in this journal......about to treat myself to another ferg burger......and an early night!. have a long bus ride to Christchurch tomorrow!! nearly finished my time here but have decided to go and work for a month in river valley where i did my rafting!! tiff is not ready to meet yet so i am going to relax and stay in one place for a while!..........its actually hard work all this travelling! speak soon lots of love kristy xxxx
