Day 4

ISLA ROATAN

after getting off the ship, we were greeted by dancers and musicians. it was very fun to watch them play and dance. there was also a family or something playing on a big xylophone thing. after walking thru a couple shops, we went to find our tour.

today we are going ziplining. i was SO excited!!!! couldnt even stand it. we drove a bit til we got to the top of this big hill/mountain thing. and then i started getting nervous. we got our gear and helmets on and waited for the rest of our crew to get ready. meanwhile i got to watch there pet monkey play in the cage. once we were ready, they hooked us one at a time up to the zipline and gave us instructions. pretty basic, pull down on the line to slow down, the guy at the end will make sure you stop. It was SO MUCH FUN!!!! i often forgot what i was doing and got caught up in the view and the feeling of flying thru the trees. but it was also really fun getting to go really fast. definitly was nothing to be nervous about. totally recommend it to anyone!
