Hawaii - Parasailing

We had two unique and really fabulous tourist packages.  The first one was a parasailing trip.  Neither of us had ever been before, so we were REALLY excited when we came across a Groupon discount deal that made it 2 for the price of a discounted 1.  Definitely didn’t want to pass that up!

Once we got in the boat and started making our trek out into the ocean, we were treated to a rainbow view!  

 Gorgeous Honolulu city views

Humidity means my hair goes wonky.  But it was such a great day!

OUR TURN!!  Luckily, the second tour guide (not the boat driver) was also a professional photo and took these in-flight photos for me!

All strapped up and waiting to go.

Starting to lift off the boat.  I’m a tad nervous at this point, but mostly excited!

Flying low and taking in the scenery. 

I love the colourful parachute!

A little further out on the rope.

It was surprisingly calm in the air.  I was expecting to be able to feel the waves through the rope pull, but it was really really smooth.

We got the longest rope length of our group.  We went up much higher, and it was awesome!  We had a coupon, so we paid less, but got a longer/better ride.  I love deals. 

I also think it’s awesome that this photo has a little rainbow in the corner!

Dropping us lower; about to dip us in the water….

As soon as we touched the water, Blair SCREAMED in delight, which made me BURST out laughing. 

LOVE that he caught that moment on camera.  :)

Not sure what happened, but when Blair came out of the water, he was all flopped forward in the seat.

I think it’s HI-larious.

bwahahaha

It was such a beautiful day.  Absolutely perfect for being on the water.

 Such a FUN experience!!
