Uncle T in Town (Part 2) The Zip Lines!!

Justin says "I did Part 1, you have to do part 2 and 3." We took so many pictures over the last few days and we especially want to share them with our family - so to our friends who frequent our site, the next couple of posts may be a bore for you...but please bare with us!!

Our time here is drawing short, there are several things we still want to do before the boys and I leave and one of those adventures was the "Rain Forest Canopy Tour!" This is a course of 9 zip lines dispersed throughout the Antiguan Rain Forest and at the end a bonus obstacle course. Justin and I thought this would be especially fun to do with Trevor. I was a little nervous - my main request was that I not go first - but what happened...yup, I was first! After the first zip, I wasn't so nervous and actually enjoyed looking around as I was zooming over top of the area!




Getting harnassed up!



Trevor and I in between lines!



First Line...talk about butterflies in my stomach!!



This line was the longest line...called "The Screamer" 300+ feet across.
Justin's Turn...



Completing the obstacles...they weren't too difficult, unless you had a 200+ pound man running behind you on the already unstable bridge or rope!!



The Finish Line!!!
