PP day 1- pt 2

You guessed it. A loooooong hike and climb to zip line over the ocean. Worth every bead of sweat and sore muscle. I almost broke rule number 8; but controlled myself. lol.

Some stops to enjoy along the way to the next stop. I wanted to actually do some rock climbing, cave exploring and spelunking. Lots of ropes and pulling yourself and some very tight spaces to squeeze or crawl or lift yourself through. But motivated by the calorie burning sign. Up and up and up and up and up. Ladders and ropes and humidity with a reward of a quick flight down. So fun. Glad I had the wet suit, but perhaps I should have rubbed myself with butter first! Got to play Wonder Woman and Aqua Man coming down which provided some natural air conditioning to recover. Turns out I was finally too in shape to finish the decent. The parachute slowed me down too much; my same day minted sweat loss left me too light to complete. I guess the sign was right! lol. Time for a cold higher alcohol local beer to rehydrate!
Now to the last physical activity of the day! All refreshed and ready.

But first we must stop to ask a nice man working on the side of the road what he is doing on such a hot day. He kindly stopped his work to explain that he was spreading out his freshly picked rice to dry. Lots of work and I said a prayer that it didn’t rain this afternoon.Read more
