Day 33 - 10th Feb - The day Vicky and I were supposed to Skydive! got up really early ready to skydive and for a day of extreme sporting activity, appartently not! At first the skydive was postponed from leaving at 7am, then to 9am, then 11am. Meaning that i couldn't do it on that day, as i had another activity in the afternoon so postponed for now! So disappointed as we had both prepared ourselves to do it, but have to wait for tomorrow instead! Afternoon i did an activity without the other girls called 'Mad Dog River Boarding' which was so great but mental and too funny! Basically you get kitted with a wetsuit, flippers, helmet and boggy board, instructors then give you a lesson in the river of how to swim in a rapid river which has up to level 3 rapids in it! you have to swim for about an hour non-stop down the river in a group (which was about 20 of us plus instructors). It was so much fun although it was such a hard workout! it is an activity which could only happen in Queenstown, you just have to go with the flow (excuse the pun) and swim into the rapids and if you go under or lose you board just swim your hardest until you reach the end, sooo funny! after we got to this we got to go down a couple of slides, do some cliff jumping into the river and get dragged behind a jet ski on the board! Evening we had dinner at the lodge, then into Queenstown for a night out. We went to the Ice Bar called Minus 5, got set up with some ugg boots, gloves, coat and Russian Hat ready to go into the bar where everything is ice, including the actual bar, the glasses, the seats and it was full of sculptures! Then back to World bar for some dancing!
