Hello from Queenstown!
The group arrived in yesterday afternoon and the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement as we entered the adventure capital of the world!! Plans of bungy, skydiving, whitewater adventures, jet boating, and lord of the rings sight seeing are just a few. The southern alps are beautiful and the lakes below them are pristine.
This morning, Sam and I prepare to jump from a 134 meter (440 feet) suspended platform in the middle of a valley. The company claims an 8.5 second free fall, but Andrew (Tony's son) and I did some math and believe this to be slightly off (physics is phun!). If this is Sam and my last post we would like everyone to know two things: 1) We went out with our boots on, and 2) the Nevi bungy's safety record is nearly perfect, or was. Alexis, Andrew, Bryan, Sam, Nick, Brittney, and I are all up for this adventure and it looks to be a promising day!
