Never before our honeymoon did I think I’d actually go parasailing…
However, once we got up there, the unbelievable beauty and exhilaration was fabulous!
For those of you who don’t know what Parasailing is, basically, you set out on a speed boat in a lake or similar reservoir.
You get set up in a harness-like contraption attached to a parachute.
You can go up singly or tandem with another person. It’s almost like being seatbelted onto a swing.
Then, as the speedboat starts to “speed”, the parachute elevates you into the air.
You usually have the choice of going 200 meters, 400 meters or 800 meters into the sky.
We went 800 meters and boy, oh boy, was that high!
I’m slightly scared of heights sometimes, and my hubby’s not! So, he was swinging all around, scaring the mess out of me, until he went back too far and his video camera strap nearly came off of his neck! Our new video camera given to us for our honeymoon by our parents! The swinging ceased and desisted.
Now, I wouldn’t be so scared. You have a parachute if anything happened and you’re landing in water.
We parasailed in Orlando, Florida, and it was absolutely wonderful! I can’t wait to go again…
This time, we weren’t so athletically challenged doing it, but I’ve actually seen competitions in parasailing and people doing different “tricks”…
