ABC WEDNESDAY LETTER " Z "


Its ABC Wednesday again. " Z " is for ZIP -LINE. This is one of our group in Nicaragua getting his thrills on a zip -line "ride". There were three lines to get from the top of the mountain, across the lake and down to ground level. The guys thought it was an awesome thing to do.....Me? I watched. Heights and me don't get along too well.
Don't forget to enlarge it.

  1. It looks like fun, but the same with me, also a wimp. I am too high stood on a chair.
    I did go up in a hot air balloon one time and after a few minutes, it wasn't too scary.

  22. You shouldn't be scared of heights...it's the ground that kills you!

  30. I haven't been by your blog in a while because of my schedule. I can see that I have really missed a lot. Lots of quality, eye-enticing photos.

  38. "Me? I watched." I would've too, covering my eyes half of the time. Gee, I just couldn't do something like that. My stomach wouldn't allow it. But I do love the photo.

    How have you been? I hope all is well. :)

    Cheers!

  43. My kind of recreation... But someone won't let me... And I probably have an unfavorable weight-to-upper-arm-strength balance...
