Day 4: Parasailing in St. Thomas

St. Thomas is a beautiful island! We started our morning out in the Amber Palace come to find out we were meeting in the wrong place. LOL So before we left, Sarah and I decided to take a couple of pictures.
This is the beautiful Amber Palace where we hold many memories. :)

Sarah...just hanging out...about to go meet our friends!

And theres me...there is pure fright behind that smile! Just sayin.

Michelle getting ready to go!

What?! Seriously??

Venita all ready to get up in the air!

V's up!!

Here I am...all set and ready to go!

I'm up...and doing okay....

Starting to wonder why I am really flying through the air....lol

300 feet up in the air!! Afraid of heights and can't swim...not a good combination. LOL It was beautiful up there though! I did good until I looked down, then I kinda freaked out! I was hanging on to that rope for dear life, like thats really going to help anything! LOL

Coming back in...it was a little scary...I wanted to make sure I landed back on the boat! LOL I did and all was good! It really was a great experience even though it was a little scary! Everyone needs to try it! :)

The next few pictures are as we were coming back to land after our big adventure! :) Sooo beautiful!!!

Glad you went parasailing. I did that in Hawaii and LOVED it. I snorkeled in St. Thomas but wish I could have gone into town, also. Not enough time...:(
