Friday (Sept. 4th)
We ate and swam at the hotel, packed up, and headed out for one more adventure!
The last day we were on the coast was definitely our most daring! My sister found a Canopy Tour where you zip line through the Redwood trees. It was pretty pricey but SO worth it! Mom and Dad were kind enough to babysit the four grandkids so we could play in the trees! THANK YOU!
The instructor taught and trained us on the ground first (we went through drills of clipping, unclipping, calling out safety checks...), so when we were up in the trees, we could be on our own (kinda).
Dan getting "suited" up. These were very comfortable harnesses, right honey? :/
Me and my three siblings. (Mickelle, Jonathan, Emily, Me)
The cute couple ready to go!
I was the first to climb up, mostly because I didn't want to have to wait, then get scared and chicken out. :) It was a 70ft high climb to the first zip line. That was the hardest part by far! I need to work on my upper body strength, I guess.
(This is actually my sister, Emily, climbing. So you get the idea.)
Here's everyone else down on the ground.
The view across the first and shortest zip line. (Note: The longest zip line they had was 100ft)
My sister Emily coming across!
This is my other sister Mickelle!
The four siblings together on the lower platform.
Dan! Check out his l o n g legs comin' across!
ME! (Never mind the screaming. It really was a blast!
Dan and Laura sittin' in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g. First comes love, then comes marriage. Then comes the baby in a baby carriage! (Note: We really did kiss while we were up in the trees. Cheesy, I know.) :)
