Ziplines and Waterfalls - 12

08.12.14

Today was the day of ziplining, and I was so excited. If you have never done it before, you have to. It's not even scary or anything, whether or not you're afraid of heights. My mom, who's afraid of heights, loves ziplines! Anyway... today we were going on a 3-line zipline tour, which sounded fun. The first ziplines actually weren't that exciting. They were too short, and it ended too quickly. I raced Jasmine, and beat her easily, but it wasn't exactly fair because I had more momentum. I was disappointed that we were almost done when we got to the 3rd line, but not when I saw it.

3rd zipline

This line was huge. It stretched across a whole river. They really were saving the best for the last. I couldn't wait. As soon as the signal was given for us to go, I was off. The wind flew by my ears, and when I got by the trees, I could see everything. It was really cool and fun at the same time. I waited at the bottom until everyone was finished, and sadly, it was the end of our ziplining tour. We would have to do it again, because it was one of the most fun activities that we could only do on vacation.

Wapiti Fall

After that, we went to a waterfall. The waterfall wasn't very tall, but it was really wide, which made it look really big. Especially when we were right in front of it. Yes, we got to walk down to the actual waterfall. There was tons of mist coming off the waterfall and it soaked through even my raincoat. I didn't want to get any closer, but my sister and dad both did and when they came back they were dripping wet. So I had apparently made a good decision. We stayed near the waterfall for a bit before people came and we left and went home, feeling happy and wet at the same time.
