Monday morning was one of adrenaline. We left at 545 am to bungee jump off of the highest bridge in Africa, and the highest bungee jump in the world. HOLY COW. That’s really all I have to say! I wasn’t one bit nervous the entire day! I was soooo calm, it was almost ridiculous. However, once I jumped and started to fall, I panicked! I let out the most terrified scream I have ever done. It wasn’t high pitched and girlie, it was more of a terrified roar. I batted the air for a few seconds, regained my composure, and fell the rest of the way in silence. When the bungee caught me I just whispered “Thank you Jesus” about a million times until one of the workers came and brought me up. TIA?
Right before my jump!!
I jumped off... they didn't push me, I promise! I bought the video :)
I got scared around this point....
I made it!
The group of us who left extra early to make sure we could jump! 22 people from APU jumped total
Monday night we drove to Port Elizabeth and stayed in the CUTEST HOTEL EVER! The APU student and his friend from George who came to AE in March met us there and we hung out for the night. Tuesday morning we left to crawl through the Cango Caves, which was probably more thrilling for me than bungee jumping. I have had a fascination with caves for years, and this experience was exhilarating. We actually had to crawl through tiny crevasses. It was not for the faint of heart or claustrophobic. Afterwards, we went to an ostrich farm and a few people got to ride them. I was able to sit on one… TIA.
Cango Caves!!!!
We had to climb up this "chimney." It was so narrow and vertical!
