One of the things on Our List was to go on a zip line. Now, being the picky wife that I am, I told the hubs that I did NOT want him to take me 20 miles north of town, to one of our small local zip-lines which has been set up in conjunction with the ski area. NOPE – NOT ME!
I wanted to zip-line somewhere exotic! Somewhere where there was the possibility of seeing parrots or monkeys! We found the right place at Treetop Adventure Park in St. Lucia!
I do not know whether it was the 12 lines cut through the top of the lush forest canopy, the speed, the height, or the ridiculously fun demeanor of the guides – but I’m pretty sure this was my favorite part of our 10-day trip! The guides at TreeTop made even me, a confirmed chicken, soar through the trees like a hawk. (Our guide Melvin gave our group the nickname, “The Chicken Hawks!”) After the first line, there was nothing scary about it. See for yourself:
Nobody paid me to write this post. I just wanted to share one of the most stinkin’ fun things we did on our wandering!

That looks like so much fun! Isn’t it nice to overcome your fears and enjoy such a memorable (with a video!) outcome.

Yup, zip line is definitely still on my to-do list. And I’m actually OK with one 20 miles north through the woods….if I wait till a place like St Lucia, it might never happen. Oh, did you fly past any monkeys?

Looks cool. I’ve never been zip-lining. The closest I’ve gotten is taking a ski-lift up a mountain. I hope to try zipping someday soon though.
