Tsitsikamma Canopy Tours

We sailed (zip-lined, as we call it here) 90 feet above the canopy floor through the Tsitsikamma forest of Outeniqua Yellowwood trees.  What a rush!  Christine's wonderful pics and video of this adventure were lost in our robbery, but I can include just a few I managed to have on my phone.  (I didn't work hard to get photos because we knew we would buy the video... lesson learned!)

Our guide was hysterical and full of pranks.  He was always trying something funny to startle those he felt could take it (a German couple on the tour were not so impressed with his silliness, so he left them alone).  Once he told me to go, and so I jumped, but before I got too far away, he grabbed my harness and held me back, shaking and jostling me as I dangled 90 feet in the air.  He insisted that he hadn't told me to go as he shook me back and forth.  I laughed with delight.  He was always up to tricks which made the trip very entertaining; we never knew what to expect and had to stay on our toes.  The middle pic is of him sailing to us on the last run, hooting and hollering all the way.
