Just for a giggle me and Katie (my good friend from work, albeit she's an American) did a paraflight. It's where you're pulled behind a boat using a parachute. Complicated physics involved - the boat goes really quick so you stay airborne, but when it slows down, as the driver (or should it be Captain?) did a few times, you fall pretty quickly and you prepare yourself for a freezing death. Good views though!
Me and Miss Lien pre-launch.
We got a lot of waves from passers-by. I think it was 'cos we were wearing matching shoes.
Lake Wakatipu from the top. Boat, rope, camera, parachute, you get the picture.
Paraflights, putting the "fun" in "fun-times" since some time in the past that's been gone and already happened at some point previously.
