We took a end-of-summer vacation to Wisconsin Dells last weekend for a "last hurrah" before school started and we had to say goodbye to summer. Our mini-vacation started early Friday morning when we left the house bright and early to get to the Dells for our 11 am departure on the BigFoot Ziplines!

Here is me and the kids--all harnessed up. I was scared to death and the rest of the family was excited and couldn't wait to hit the ziplines!
We did six lines and it took a total of about 3 hours. Through the trees, over water--it was breathtaking!

Abz had a blast riding the lines...

Jamie was the official photographer during our excursion. He had a blast watching everyone zoom down the lines! He also had fun on the lines himself--taking running jumps, falling off the tower backwards, and hanging from the line upside down!
(Which, by the way, we ALL did those "tricks"--yep! Even Abz and I!)

(Clicking on the picture will enlarge it a bit--we couldn't bring our "good" camera on the lines, so we used our old digital and our camera phones...)
