4 out of 5 ain't bad
Hi Julia, Katy here! Actually all of us did the bungy apart from Honor, who didn't qualify, because she was under age (10) and under weight (35 kg). Harry actually only just qualified. He was 35.3kg at the weigh in, after a large meal the night before to get him up to fighting weight. The bungy was absolutely amazing and exhilarating. I'd recommend it to anyone, but probably best if done with the experts. I kept asking people at AJ Hackett, who did our bungy and who ran the original commercial bungy jump from the very spot that we did ours, what their safety record was. Everyone said 100%. I thought that was fine. And it really was! Hope all's great with you, and maybe we'll see you in London in Sept. Love, Katyx

Awesome New Zealand!
Hello Sam! Aunty Katy here. The boys have finally let me see the blog, and get a chance to write a comment or two. Thank you for your congratulations on the bungy. It really was brilliant, bungy jumping. It'll be something for you to look forward to when you get a chance to come out and explore the South Island. We met quite a few British and other young people who were working in Queenstown, doing ski, bungy and jet boat related work, and even a few working in supermarkets but clearly all enjoying their months in NZ. We have been amazed at how incredibly good the New Zealanders are at keeping tourists happy - and providing the most amazing adventurous activities for them. You New Zealanders should be very proud of yourselves! Love, Aunty Katyx
