The EXTREME Weekend!!!

Two weekends ago (I apologize for the lateness and lack of blogging once again) Trev and I had a weekend of Paint ball, White Water rafting and Yes... BUNGEE JUMPING!!!

With a group of about 40-45 people, we took a bus for about 6-7 hours up to Inje, which is North of Iksan, about an hour or two from the North Korean border. Before we even got to the place we would be staying the night, we stopped and had a game of paint ball, my first time ever!! It was... well interesting.

We all got suited up, made our teams and were told the rules. We were playing outside in an actual forest area, not really big, but a decent size. There were no paths cleared out just trees, bushes, branches, dirt, mud, typical forest. At first I was really nervous, not really having that fighting instinct in me, as you all know, so for the first little while I just stayed close to Trevor. But then, he got shot! I was alone!!In the woods!! I was more worried about not finding my way out then I was about getting shot. However, I managed to meet up with some teammates and even took a few shots at the other team. That first round I managed to stay alive!! The second round, I wasn't so lucky. I got shot, twice!! The first shot was in my leg, and as I looked down (split second) I got hit again... Right on the knuckle!!! It hurt A LOT!! I shouted out "I'm Hit!!" and had to find my way back to the start. This proved to be a bit of a challenge, thanks to my great sense of direction, but I found my way out!!!

The gear...

Afterwards we headed over to our cottage-like motel where a Korean BBQ dinner was waiting for us. The rooms at this place were all ondul style, which is where everyone sleeps on the floor. Its literally a room with a big floor space and a bathroom. So we had 5 rooms for about 43 people, needless to say, these rooms weren't huge and it was a bit of a tight squeeze. I woke up a few times with feet on my feet, and I had to try to squirm a little to get some more room, but it was ok. We managed to sleep.

The Motel

The next morning, we went White water rafting!!! SOOOOOO much fun!!!! I would highly recommend trying this for anyone who hasn't done so already!!! I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but once we got going, it was really fun!!!

The group

Next... Yup that's right... BUNGEE JUMPING!!!! and yes I DID IT!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't going to do it, but I knew I would regret it, if I didn't. It was really quick, but Really Really fun!! An amazing experience!!! Trevor did it too... We both really liked it, but because it was so windy that day, everyone used the body harness, rather then the foot harness, and this body harness gave the worst wedgie ever!!!! After we were unhooked we both had sore tail bones for a bit.

The actual Bungee Jump

All Suited upI'm next...
Here I go...

Unfortunately, the person who was suppose to be taking a video of me from below, didn't. Trevor tried to take one, from the line up, (he was waiting to go still) but my camera was full and the video stopped just as I jumped. But the place that we did it at, took pictures and put them on their website www.injejump.com.kr Here are a few mid-jump shots of both of us:

We also got certificates for doing it too!! SOOO amazing!!!! Overall, a great Weekend!!!
