Day 5

The thing to do in Stormsriver is the canopy tour - you go up in the trees and buzz around from one to another on a zip line. Coral was a bit apprehensive at first but she manned up an donned the gear 

And rode the wire!

It was fun - about two hours running 10 lines - the longest one was 100m

In between all this fun the guide explained the ecology of the area - did you know the national tree of SA is the yellowwood - and you have male and female species and can get to 500 years old.

This is where we went for lunch - next door to the canopy tour.

One moment you are learning about the power of nature - the next you are chomping on a burger in Marilyn's 50's diner! Home of the annual Elvis festival. Both ends of the cultural spectrum!

Weather was a bit iffy today so we pushed on to Port Elizabeth and we are going to stay here for 3 days. Nice view from the bedroom window - 

I know it will be bugging you as to where is the highest bungee jump now - well it's the Macau Tower - only 15 m higher but 230m gets the prize - and funnily enough I've been to the top of that tower about 10 years ago - Tommy and I went there to get away from Hong Kong for a couple of days - he won about £500 in the casino in 10 minutes of getting there and we treated ourselves to the best hotel and some golf - happy days!
