I don't have all my pics from day 3 on my computer yet, so I'll get back to that. Day 4 of the cruise we stopped in Roatan. I have always wanted to go zip lining, so when I heard that Roatan had a course, it was a must! Eric didn't share as much enthusiasm for it, but he was still up for it.
Right when we got off the ship we walked around a little. Once we passed the shops, we came across a zip lining course. I am so glad we didn't go through the cruise line, because they wanted to charge 4 times the amount that we paid in Roatan!

We got all our gear on and went on a car ride to the beginning of the course.

The only scary part of the entire course was the first line. As I was approaching the end, the guy who was supposed to catch me acted like I was going way too fast and he couldn't stop me. It made my heart race because I didn't know what to do! It turns out it was just an act and he does it to everyone. It made for an exciting first run.

The other nerve wrecking part of the trip was that we had to hold on to the line on some of the runs (like Eric is doing in this picture). I was the most nervous because our gloves had a couple little holes in them. I didn't want the rope to touch my hand!
Zip lining was very relaxing. I don't think this course was the greatest. The runs were pretty short and very horizontal, so I just took in the beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, the only animal we saw was a pet monkey. We were speaking to another couple that had been before, and they went on a course with a 4 story drop! I would LOVE to do that.
