BUNGEE JUMPING OH MY GOD

Today we went...

BUNGEE JUMPING!!!

I cannot believe I did it! It was a very last minute decision and that's probably the only way I could've done it because otherwise I would've siked myself out!

We woke up early and headed to the other zip lining place in Monteverde where they have the "Tallest Bungee Jumping in Latin America"--465 feet!!

It was terrifying. Isaac and Maura went out first, and Isaac jumped but Maura couldn't. So when they came back, Maura stayed on for Paulina and I to go out. I jumped first! The people helping us (there were 2) are very good at their jobs and know how to make it quick so I don't think about it! I can't believe it, I actually jumped!

You're strapped in by your feet so you have to dive and jump head first! It was terrifying, but once I did I was so happy that I had done it! What a rush! You free fall for 4 seconds and then bounce and free fall again a couple of times. Then Paulina went, and so did Maura! We all did it! We were all so proud of ourselves!

Video on Facebook coming soon (it's on a CD and my computer does not have a CD drive anymore...).

After, we jumped in Miguel's car and rode 4.5 hours to where we are now--Playa Tamarindo. It is already much much hotter than it was in Monteverde. I get one full day here (tomorrow) and then back to San Jose on Saturday for one last day in this beautiful country! It went so fast!
