Guess what I did!

I’ve had fun today. But a bit of back story first. About ten years ago we visited the Vienne region in France and stayed in Availles Limouzine at a renovated mill which belongs to an acquaintance of Vince’s. Two years ago we came here again in our motor-home and now we’re back for a third time. It’s almost like coming home.
Today, on our way to Availles Limouzine, we went to Isle-Jourdain, where there is a lovely old viaduct which crosses the valley. A great place to get some nice photos. This time they were also doing bungee jumping off the bridge and zip-lining across the river and under the viaduct to the other side.
If you look carefully at the photo you might see someone in a pink top seemingly suspended in mid-air. That’s me!
It was a great thrill. Once I landed over the other side, I climbed some steps almost to the top of the viaduct and zip-lined a shorter distance back across the river.
So tonight, I’m quite proud of me. I didn’t think I was nervous but my legs were like jelly when I landed the first time.

Way to go Judy! You are quite the adventurist! Proud of you for going zip-lining. It's one of my favorite things to do. I haven't gotten up the courage to go bungee-jumping yet, but it is on my bucket list of things to do!

It looks like I'm just hanging but I was going quite fast.

Well good for you. I would never since I am afraid of heights. Nice shot of you hanging there.

Good for you, Judy! I zip lined for the first time just a few years ago and loved it. Great photo of you!

I would LOVE to zip line right there! Sounds like so much fun.

It was a great ride down and seemed to last a long time.

I like that bridge though if it was in California it would be deemed unsafe for earthquakes.
