3-2-1-BUNGEEEEEE!

Up incredibly early today. Reallt excited at the prospect of going on Safari. We boarded an open truck and hit the road around 7am, with the icy wind catching our faces. Fortunately we had blanket ponchos to cover our faces and nice cuppa awaiting us in "Mosi-y-tuna!" Absolute legends.
Apparently, the prospect of seeing ANY animals was 50/50 and so conversation turned to the animal faeces that was littering the pathway. We saw elephant tracks, but sadly no elephants.
But we did see giraffes, zebra, impala, monkeys, babboons, wildebeast and a phenomenal tree that as soon as an elephant comes across it it sends out signals through its roots as a defense mechanism to protect others of its kind from being floored from the elephants.

Arrived back at Jollyboys and was very nervous for the afternoons' activities...bungeeee.
We first had to cross the Zam/Zim border, which proved easier than anticipated. After a ridiculously long wait we took the (short) long walk to the bridge and before I knew it I was getting harnessed up for my jump. Having had second, third and fourth thoughts about the jump, there was NO GOING BACK.

Suddenly I was sitting on the platform - freaking out. The jump was so HIGH. Why on earth was I doing this?

5-4-3-2-1.....BUNGEEEEE! And I was flying, head first. The sensation felt weird...I was flying.

The worst part was walking up the bridge again, legs shaking like jelly from the adrenaline.
YEEEEEEH, I did a bungee jump. yeeeeh!

In the evening we went for an African meal at an African restaurant with some awesome entertainment. What a day!
