Flyin' in Costa Rica (Part I)

Superman

Upside Down

The Butterfly (!?)

No, they're not abdominal exercises. At the Congo Trail Canopy Tour near Artola in Costa Rica, these are ways you can ride the zip lines. If your first experience with a canopy tour was in the U.S., riding a zip line upside down might be a bit unnerving, if not disorienting. We tried not to look too hard at the safety standards (no helmets and... yeah, that platform has a bit too much electrical tape) but still had a great time. The entire experience is worthy of a much longer post (that will be part II) but the following quick videos show the butterfly (my wife) and upside down (me) in action.
