(I wrote this blog a couple of months ago, but I'm just now getting around to posting it. African internet is…difficult, lol).
Today I got to stand (actually kneel and stick my head out the rails) on a platform 145 feet above the Nile, and photograph my friends bungee jumping. It was so fun, especially since I love capturing the moment to remember forever.
Although it was so fun to see them freak out, and ultimately conquer their fears all in the name of adrenaline rush, it was also kind of hard. See, bungee jumping and rafting the Nile at Adrift in Uganda is kind of a World Race staple. Ever since Josh and I signed up for the Race over two years ago, I've been reading blogs about this very opportunity.
As much as Josh and I wanted to do it, we just can't afford it. A jump and rafting cost $100 each, and multiply that by two for both of us. It just wasn't going to happen. So, I settled with watching my friends jump, and being the photographer.
I've realized that I have the dreaded disease called FOMO. Fear Of Missing Out. It can strike at any time, any day….
