Abseiling

You would know this better as rappelling. We did this on a Sunday morning -- it was me, Cori, and our guide and that's IT. Travelling in the off-season has it's perks...

The largest cliff we rappelled was 120 METERS tall -- it was an absolute RUSH. We abseiled near an amusement park...without fail, when I went over the edge, the Indiana Jones THEME SONG was playing.



I wish I could give you a sense of the scale of the height. These trees are without a doubt the largest ones I've seen in my life -- and they don't even reach up to half the height of the cliff.


Here is a picture half way down, between my legs. It was an interesting perspective, and was tough to not get dizzy!


Look up. Look WAAAAAAAY up.
