    • I'm afraid of height so this was a bit of a challenge....imagine a rope and bamboo bridge with the width that equals the length of your foot; then imagine that there is a running river underneath you as you swing and totter along from one side to the other...

    Let the fun begin!

    (If you spend a day exploring the Highlands, you'll come across one or more such bridges, used extensively by the native tribes)
