Ocho Rios, Jamaica was our first port, and the place where we went ziplining !!!! Wooohhhhooooo !!
We started off with a bit of a drive . . . up, up, and higher up into the mountain/rain forest area. Jack and I had a front row seat on the bus for our drive: Jack was in the passenger seat of our crowded bus, and I sat next to him in a kind of fold-out/trundle seat, with my feet on the dashboard !!! Seatbelts, schmeatbelts . . . not on this bus !!! So we had a prime view of all the human-sized potholes in the road (a single lane that was actually a two-way road !), and the ravines over the side of the road (very few and small guardrails !!) Thank God our driver's name was Lucky . . . . that's exactly what we were to make it to our destination !! The ziplining was nothing after that ride !!!
After getting strapped into our harnesses and helmets, we were off ! There were about 9 or 10 different sections that made up the whole ziplining course. Here are a few videos that Jack took of our experience:
So glad we chose this activity . . . it was so much fun !!!!!!
More cruise posts to come . . . . !

How fun! When James and I went to Costa Rica, we were chickens and chose the treetop canopy walk instead of ziplining. But those rope and wooden bridges were pretty exhilerating, too!
Hey Melissa,
It is a been a long time since we have connected. Got your blog from Jenn's. Looks like you are having a great time!
We did ziplining in Alaska last summer--what a hoot! I could have zipped around all day.
I just noticed from your comment on Freckled Farm that you collect red transferware. Me too! They're my official Christmas dishes, but I use them all winter long. I love that you can acquire pieces that don't match and they still look good together.
