good evening folks, you have the rare pleasure of reading what Paul McGreal has to say!what i'm going to write isn't going to be one day after another its just going to be random days that i've picked out of my diary that i liked. yes i do have a diary and no its not girly!!!!
ok, 14th March, bungy jump, not a lot to say about this, but a lot of people have sent me messages saying that this was a crazy thing to do, and to be honest in retrospect i'd have to agree with them it was crazy and i don't no why i did it!willingly throwing yourself off a bridge that is over 700ft high is not to be taken lightly. all said and done it was one of the best things i have ever done in my life and i enjoyed it greatly!
21st March we went horseriding. it was amazing to be galloping over the sand dunes and across the beach. however, the horses were a bit unpredictable, it would gallop wen it wanted and not wen i wanted it too and then suddenly stop which made life interesting, but i did manage to get it to turn wen i wanted it too which was good enough for me! :) as i didn't get hit by as many branches. i named my horse speckles!
28th March, my birthday, not really much to it as we were at a quiet place in South Africa, we went for a birthday meal at a restaurant called 'La Terazza' and i had snails for starters which were beautiful and cannelonifor main. it was also the first time i was able to gel my hair just incase anyone was wondering lol!
8th April, we went on a hike to a place called hole in the wall, wen we reached our destination we were able to go swimming in the ocean, some people from our group were jumping off a ledge into the sea in the middle of this hole, so i decided to go and join in whilst the others stayed and watched from the safety of the shallow water. it took a while to get out to the ladge and i was pretty tired wen i got to it so i was a bit put out wen i looked up and realsied i had to climb up the side off it just to get out. i started to climb up wen a wave crashed against the rocks below me and propelled me straight to the top of them. after that i just remember saying 'well that was easy' whilst santiago (spanish guy we met) just sat there and laughed at me. after watching people jump into the sea it came to my go, and i don't mind saying i was a bit scared, i could jump off a bridge but wen it came to the sea i respeced the force of it! i jumped in and got swept along till i came up right next to some girl that jumped in before me! i promptly started swimming back to where the other 3 were and asked if they saw me jump in, no was the answer because just as i was about to jump in a wave got in the way, typical!
13th April, another hike, but this time it was just me and Sanitago the spaniard as we were all hungover from a huge party the night before. at the end of this hike we got to jump off a waterfall into a lagoon in the middle of a forest, safe to say it cured my hangover, a few days after this Santiago and i invented free-style ping pong which we stayed up till 5 in the morning playing and should be learned by everyone.
24th April, wet 'n' wild water park, quite possibly one of hte best days so far. some of the slides were a bit dangerous, actually no they weren't we just made them dangerous.on one slide i caught up with Nathan and grabbed onto his shoulder, saf to say he started screaming straight away. i did get my comupence (sorry if thats spelt wrong) the next we went down, as mark stood on my head at the bottom of the slide wen we landed in the pool. the only downside to this day was that i somehow managed to lose a chunk of my foot, but of coure it didn't stop us for long, only time enought to get it bandaged up.
4th May, our flight to Asia, i absolutely love the flying so far, we have had so much to eat on the flights and had so much choice of films to watch on the first flight i watched about 6 films and this time i watched 5! so far in asia we've been on 2 tour buses and seen a lot of the city, we have also been down the road that will be used in the upsoming Grad Prix that is to be the first ever to be held at nite, and to top it all off we are now staying in the red light district, good times!
over and out!
