How Crazy Are We?!?!?

Today was our day off from skiing, so we decided to do the next best thing...BUNGEE JUMP!



We slept in this morning recovering from our night out. And as soon as we got up we headed down to Whistler Bungee. I was really nervous and had some major butterflies. Doug had bungee jumped before down in Destin and I had done something similar to bungee jumping in Daytona, but nothing can prepare you for jumping off of a 160 foot bridge down into the water below.







I was very scared when they started putting on all the harnesses, but I knew that Doug would not let me back out now. I decided to jump backwards because the instructor said that it is the most intense way. To tell you the truth I don't really remember the jump I just remember dangling and waiting on the cord to drop so that I could attach it to me to get me back up to the bridge.




Doug did an awesome job filming my jump...

Doug had to be different and jump off head first. He did like a little scissor kick thing as he was going down and he did just a little bit of screaming or hollering, which ever you want to call it. He admitted that he was a little nervous too.
Like I said, Doug did an amazing job capturing my jump...I on the other hand could not return the favor. I could barely see over the bar and I was scared that I was going to drop the camera. Whenever he jumped I accidentally pressed the power button so the camera shut off. I did manage to get it turned back on in time to see him hanging above the water. I was so disappointed in myself and really sad that I didn't get his jump on film. SOOOO sorry Doug!!!!
