Another uni semester has come to a close and we have a couple of weeks before we’re back into it. One of Slims best childhood mates from our home town is currently living in Cairns and we think it’s about time we go annoy him. We are straight into the beautiful waterfalls and waterholes of Cairns before Jonah decides it’s a great idea to jump off a 50 metre tower like structure into a small waterhole below. Yes, we are going Bungee Jumping, ahhhhh! We passed the bar for some liquid courage before climbing 50 metres of stairs upwards, it’s beginning to look A LOT higher. Slim takes the Bungee on first, and makes it look easy. Soph next, screaming and squawking like a chicken, and even shedding a few tears, the nice man behind her encourages the jump. Although, gut wrenching, we have concluded that diving head first off a 50 metre platform is an excellent way to shake off stress and any anxieties. Boy has all this screaming built up an appetite for burgers, we gather the rest of the crew and head for a greasy and wonderful meal before continuing to the best waterfall we have ever been to.
