Parasailing In Key West

January 22, 2013.

My favorite thing we did in Key West was by far the parasailing!  I have wanted to do this and this was my chance!

Here we are loading the parachute.  We stood up on the deck on the back of the boat and they hooked us all up.  Tyler looks a little nervous.

Here we are getting let out.  Before leaving the boat the driver asked us if we wanted to dip our feet.  We said sure.  Our feet drug through the water for a little ways...we thought that was the 'dip' he was taking about.

Here we are going up...up...up!


It was unreal how high we got.  We were up about 100' above the water.  It was so quite.  We couldn't hear anything.  It was quite relaxing, I thought.


All of a sudden the driver started to slow down and we started to come down.  Tyler was getting a little nervous and kept saying, "He's slowing down. He knows we are coming down, right?"  Well, we came down alright.  We got so low our feet were dragging through the water.  Before we knew it we were on our way back up.  That was the 'dip' he was talking about!



Here we are coming back into the boat.  So so so FUN!
 
I had so much fun! I hope this is something we get to do again in our life time!
