Guess what two naughty little travelers were up to

I know what you're thinking, and no, Ryan is not pregnant, but stay on the edge of your seat because what I'm about to tell you is even crazier, and so much to say in so little time.

I didn't tell anyone about this so that no one would have a heart attack worrying about us. This weekend, Ryan and I went to a place called The Last Resort, which is literally the last resort on the Bhoti Kosi River in the Himalayas, 4km from the Tibet border. This place specializes in extreme activities...

Ryan and I not only did white water rafting for two days (3+ to 5 level for those who know what that means) but we also BUNGEE JUMPED off one of the world's highest, if not THE highest, bungees at a solid 160m high. OH MY GOD, CAN YOU STAND HOW EXCITING THAT IS, BECAUSE I CAN'T!!!!Yes it is true, and I have the t-shirt and even a dvd to prove it.

We just spent the weekend with people from all over the world, in the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. Clear blue water, mountains, true beauty. There was only one hitch. On the way in we were stopped by Maoists (Isa you might know what this is about) who force people to pay Rs. 500 at the borders arbitrarily because they can. Even though politically things are fairly stable at the moment, these maoists carry guns and make people pay these fees for no reason known to us. However, they do provide a receipt so you don't have to pay twice ha ha, now that's service!

Anyway, if you wanna find out more about the bungee jump I will have a dvd to show you when I get home, but sadly no pictures of rafting since my camera isn't waterproof. I will probably write another entry in a couple days describing what it was like but right now I don't have the time. I'm off to dinner with my weekend companions, and then early bed time since we're off to a two-day elephant safari at Chitwan National Park in the morning. After that we are taking a bus to the India/Nepal border, taking a train from there to Delhi, and then a train from Delhi to Goa that takes a couple days. It goes without saying then that I will have a hard time finding time to write for a while, but who knows, I will probably find a way if there is one.

Anyway, I love you all and hope you don't hate me for not telling you what Ryan and I were up to until we knew we'd lived through it.

And yes, it was the scariest/craziest thing I have ever done, and probably won't ever do it again, but it was amazinggggg!!!
