Helensburg and Stanwell tops

Visted the beautiful Venkateshwara temple at Helensburg. Of course, a visit to this temple had an ulterior motive...eat the yummy South Indian dishes in the temple canteen. After a big lunch comprising of dosas and idlies, we headed off to Stanwell Tops for a view of the Grand Pacific Highway. Since it was too windy, we decided to return home as soon:)

Bungy Jumping

1) Cairns, Australia- AJHackett Bungy- Vaibhavi jumped from a height of 50 m- October, 2008

If I were to rate my thrilling experiences, this would top the list- The adrenelin rush when they say '5-4-3-2-1...jump' cannot be explained. You have to experience the joy of surrendering to gravity and then bobbing up and down after you have ovecome one of the biggest challenges in life. A note to self after the experience was 'If ever considering a suiside, jumping off a building is ruled out!'.

2) Kuwarau Bridge Bungy and The Ledge Bungy- Queenstown, New Zealand

We visted these magnificient bungy sites in New Zealand but choose not to bungy thanks to my mom's threat- 'What if someting happens to either of you...You both should think about Arya...You have done it once, then what's the point in doing the same thing over and over again'.

All I can say is .....'Parents!.....'
