Bungee Jump
Doing a bungee jump whether 160 foot or 300 is a very scary experience. With your harness attached and your feet strapped together you are lifted up in the crane. You are weighed a couple of times so that the correct bungee cord is attached. Watching over people jump you think it’s not too bad and it looks fun. But when told to jump from the top it doesn’t seem so easy! But when pushed by an instructor at the top and falling and bouncing it is fun! It’s like a ride in a theme park, its not so scary! Your head may hurt a little at the end but you will definately feel the adrenaline racing as you are safely place on the ground.

It’s such a worthwhile experience being a student, studying for a course you enjoy joining societies and sports so you can learn many new skills, or even volunteering like the Raising and Giving Society doing crazy things to raise money for charity. You can gain independence moving away from home and of course the graduation ceremony is a day you’ll never forget!!["Help]("https://www.thingstodofirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Polar "\"Help")
Christmas is always a festive time of year particularly for children. So why not volunteer to help at a Christmas grotto. There are some places in the country that get funding for free Christmas Grottos so any help as well would be appreciated you could help serve tea and mince pies to the families, help wrap the gifts or dress up as elves or even polar bears to add to the experience for the children, and you’ll have a lot of fun as well!!["Eiffel]("https://www.thingstodofirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Eiffel-Tower-225x300.jpg" "\"Eiffel")
Paris is one of those cities that everyone needs to visit. The view from the Eiffel Tower over Paris is beautiful, you can take romantic walks by the river, sample French Delicacies, cheese and wine/champagne. Don’t forget to visit Notre Dame and the Arc de Triomphe, as well as the Louvre to see famous art work including the Mona Lisa. If all of this isn’t enough, Paris also has Disneyland and Parc Asterix for the kids (or the inner kid in you)!!["Zip]("https://www.thingstodofirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Zip "\"Zip")
Flying through trees at high speeds is also so much fun! Climbing at different levels through ropes and assault courses up in the trees can be difficult at points but is all worth it when you’re flying back down again!
