I totally missed Show & Tell last week, and I have been struggling to keep up with all kinds of things, not just blogging, over the past week so I am not even going to try to keep the last couple of Honduras entries in chronological order - I am just going to share this one that I desperately wanted to put up for Show & Tell last week today, and then whatever is left as soon as I get to it.  LOL

We got up earlier than usual on our last day, a Saturday, because we had to get everything packed and our rooms cleaned up so we could be on the bus at a decent hour.  We got on the road about 10am, and I enjoyed the beautiful scenery on the highway out of La Esperanza at least as much as on the drive in.  Unfortunately I couldn't really get any good pictures out of the bus window.  Our first stop was at a restaurant beside Lake Yojoa (can't remember the name of the restaurant though).  The restaurant specialized in fried fish from the lake, but to my great relief (and others in our party as well) they also served chicken and burgers.  Kathy (missionary hostess) got the menu and took our orders while we walked out on the jetty and see the lake and take pictures.

We thought it would be a great place to take some family and group pictures.  Many of us got our family pictures at the end of this jetty, but our faces were in shadow. 

Harrison and I also got a picture with his buddy Eric, and Eric's mom, Cindy.

The boys could see snails and other creatures in the water, and did their best to get a closer look:

Time to eat... this is the lower patio of the restaurant:

We ate on the upper patio level, and the birds were there to eat up any leftovers!

The view from our table:

After lunch we continued to Pulhapanzak.

We had come to see the incredible waterfalls:

And to ride the ziplines OVER the falls!!! Here's Harrison:

And me!!!

I like how my butt is emphasized in the oh-so-comfy harness.  LOL Not.

These next two pictures are other members of the team on the zipline, but I'm showing them because they give a pretty good idea of where exactly that zipline went in relation to the falls...

So exciting to do this!!  I am so not comfortable with heights, but I can tell you that the scariest part of the zipline was actually maneuvering on the tree platforms and especially the ladders on the platforms.  That was WAY more nerve-wracking than riding across the falls.  Some of us also wished that the guides had told us BEFORE we left that last platform over the falls that we would need to put our feet out in front of us as we approached the last platform.  When you're coming towards that tree, feeling oddly like George of the Jungle and they are motioning and yelling in Spanish, it is too late.  LOL
