Kangaroo point

Just a quick note. There were no lectures today so we decided to check out Riverlife Adventures on Kangaroo Point. It's a part of land along the Brisbane River with 20 meter cliffs. They have lots of choices: rockclimbing and renting bikes and rollerblades. We decided to rent kayaks for 90 minutes and then abseil for 90 minutes. The kayaking was peaceful, so beautiful to see the city that way. The abseiling was intense, but we all did it and enjoyed it so much. Adrian was our trusted instructor. We went up these steep steps to get to the top and then he showed us how to repel down the cliff. Erik went first. He actually should have had an extra twist in his rope because he was sliding the whole way down and unable to stop himself. Made for a quick trip and his glove was sure hot by the end with the friction. Erik went a 2nd time and they got it figured out and he liked that better! Bryn and Ryan soon got the hang of it and went 3 times each. I did it too! Just one though. Can't believe it. It was so hard leaning enough to get over the edge, but once you got over the edge, it was really easy and fun. We're all tired out tonight!
We enjoyed some pizza, the first time we've gone out for pizza in nearly 2 months. It was at Johnny's Pizza-one of our pizzas was Tropical with ham, pineapple, green pepper and prawns! ( I remember we did have Domino's at Jeff and Faye's-that was good too.) All for now.
