ZIPLINE EXPERIENCE


The day before Mother's day...this blog is continuing from the previous blog. These are some amazing photo's thanks to Wally (Grandpa Peters). First you climb the ladder, then the rungs of the tree, next you get yourself onto this small platform (note how Mark is holding on...I was holding the rung behind me 'cause I couldn't let go of the tree), next you get off the platform (easier said then done!). The rest is a rush!! Oh, and to get down they throw you a rope to slow down and bring you to the landing pad. There is a ladder (one of the worst parts) and once unclasped.....you get yourself down off the ladder backwards....






















Here I go...scared to death just to climb the ladder never mind the tree rungs...
I'm glad Trudy went right after me and so proud of Mark for doing it too!













WHAT A CRAZY MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND EXPERIENCE...ONE I WILL NEVER FORGET!!
