Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah

Posted on October 28, 2013 by Jaspa | 4 Comments

The first time I went ziplining was in Whistler, British Columbia, in 2008, with Ziptrek Tours. It was a spontaneous decision, and one I wasn’t completely sure about! I have to admit to feeling a little nervous as we headed up the track towards the first line. After all, we were about to whizz back and forth between Whistler and…

Zipping Above Catalina Island

Posted on March 1, 2013 by Jillstravel | 0 Comments

Featured writer: Jillstravel Zip on over to Catalina Island on the Catalina Express from Long Beach. If you are luck, the Captain will slow the ship down as he announces a school of porpoises zipping in front of the boat. Looking out the windows, one can view a multitude of these beautiful mammals leaping into the air and playing near the…

Ziplining the Canyons in Ocala, FL… Awesome!

Posted on January 3, 2013 by admin | 2 Comments

Featured writer: Steph’s Best It was a perfectly clear and mild day, about 80°. It seemed like a good day to launch myself out of a perfectly good tree, fly over some deep ravines and lakes, and finish it off by rappelling off a 30(ish)-foot high platform. So I did that. And it was full-on, giddy, stomach-butterflying, adrenaline-pumping, permagrin-producing FUN. Ziplining…

Zipping Through the Canopy in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica

Posted on November 13, 2012 by mmtread | 4 Comments

Featured writer: Field Notes From Fatherhood I didn’t want to go ziplining. It wasn’t fear of heights – I have none. It wasn’t lack of faith in the operator’s equipment – I had faith, since it’s very bad business to send tourists plummeting to their deaths on the forest floor. I didn’t want to go because it just seemed so,…

I Do and I Understand: A Life Changing Week in the Rocky Mountain Village

Posted on September 12, 2012 by BenAHoneycutt | 3 Comments

Featured Writer: Ben Honeycutt My hawkish gaze scanned the clear waters of the Colorado pond, I took a breath, and watched for any hint of movement in the water below. Feelings of nervousness began to creep in from my outer extremities, causing my heartbeat to echo like a drum inside me. Boom Boom…Boom Boom… A sudden burst of wind ruptured…

Life On The Edge – Motorcycling Through Costa Rica

Posted on September 7, 2012 by Amy Christine Cleary | 4 Comments

Featured Writer: Amy Christine Cleary In September of 2009, I decided to get my motorcycle license. It is something that I had been talking about doing for a few months and I decided enough talking about it, DO IT! I signed up that night for a class that started the same weekend. A mere 6 months after getting my license…

Don’t Fall Into the Alligator Pit!

Featured writer: Bella Remy Photography Heading south on I-95 South towards St. Augustine is a large billboard broadcasting ” Zip Lines Over the Alligator Pits! Come to the Alligator Farm and Zoological Park in St. Augustine Beach.” Well, you certainly didn’t have to ask me twice if I’d be interested in taking on the challenge course over alligators. Now…

Featured writer- Jennie McKie After one year in Thailand, I have come to love a culture and country which is so different to my own. Thailand really does have so much to offer and I have been asked several times what kind of things I would recommend to do…. so thought I would make my top ‘Things to do’ list!!…

Cafe Con Leche in San Juan, PR

Posted on April 16, 2012 by Traveling*Indie*Writer*Chick | 1 Comments

Feature Writer: Traveling-Indie-Writer-Chick I had a wonderful birthday trip last year to San Juan, Peurto Rico with two of my good friends. Writing and coffee weren’t a huge part of it, but it was inspirational none the less. This is more of a photography filled post. The island has so many nooks and crannies that we weren’t able to explore,…

Pirates of the High Trees

Posted on March 12, 2012 by floutsam | 4 Comments

Featured Writer: Floutsam I have an irrational fear of heights. What’s there to be scared of you ask? It’s not like falling hundreds of feet to a gory disfiguring death would hurt or anything. But being as exceptionally brave as I am, I decided to fight my fears. And what better way to do this than by catapulting myself on…
