Just arrived here.  Lot of extreme adventure sports here.  The whole town is involved in sky diving, parasailing, and of course bungy jumping.  We did go out and watch the bungy jumping.  The bridge they jump off is an old suspension bridge.  Two jumping platforms.  And people lined up 6 deep, paying $160 nzd to jump off the bridge.
Tomorrw we golf at a very nice place, Milbrook in Arrowtown.  More pictures later because we have had technical difficulties with our computer.  Kids had many helpful suggestions and Tom Mc. suggested we get help!
We did from a computer wizzard.  And 5 min. later, we are all better and cost us zero.  Later, the travelers.

Bridge jumping
What? No bridge jumping?? Where's your adventuresome spirit, eh?? Or even some parasailing! Come on guys, get into the swing of things. . . . : ) Here in South Georgia the sun is shining, the weather's great, and we're having a blast. Your brother is busy in the yard, your mother is riding her bike, and life is great! Lauren and Josh sold their house and are going to rent till they find a place. Have to move out by the end of this month. This morning their washing machine died! Such is life. . . Have fun spectating the adventure sports!!!!!!! Love, Linda
