Today I went bungee jumping for the first time in my life.
I have about 5 or 6 things that I want to do before I die, and bungee jumping was one of those things on my list. Well, today I finally got to check that one off. Here we are heading on the bus to the city.
McGraw came with us. He didn't jump though. Of everyone who went, he was the only one who didn't do it. It's OK though. He took some good pictures and videos of us falling.
Kim came along and brought his new "female friend." Well, whatever he calls her, she is definetely an upgrade from his last psychotic, cult-worshiping, evil girlfriend.
Just another odd sign I happened to see while we were on the bus.
This Korean dude wanted to take a picture of me for some reason, so I let him. He thought I was a celebrity or something. I get that sometimes. It's kind of funny.
Here is Kim's friend with a friend she brought along with her. It's common for women to hold hands together in public over here. The first time I saw it, I thought there were a lot of Lesbians in Korea, but it's just one of their traditions.
There is the tower that we jumped from. It was 175 feet high.
We got about half way up the tower and they loaded us in these harnesses.
This is Kim after his jump. I only have a vidoe of me jumping and I can't put it on here, so sorry.
We had some guy take a group photo of us. I was the only one with wet legs. Everyone else stopped before they hit the water, but I guess the guy didn't get the length of the bungee right.
After we got back, Fernillios and Balanon invited me to go to an Indian food restaurant with them.
The food was really good. It was also a buffet, which is really hard to find in Korea. The food was a little spicy, but I love it.
On our way back I was looking in some of the shops and stores for some jewelry for my wife and found the world's ugliest pair of shoes. They had 3 colors to choose from, but the green was the ugliest by far.
