What did the Hurricane say to the Coconut?
You betta hold on to your nuts, it's going to be one hell of a blowjob!
This is what our day was like. Our tour guide kept us laughing and entertained the whole time. We had an amazing tour guide named Annie, she was a big St. Lucian woman who ended every sentence with the word "Baby" in a Caribbean accent. It was an hour drive to the rain forest from our resort, she she filled us in with lots of information along the way.
We picked up a family along the way of the tour who was from another resort. She told them that the zip-lining was cancelled today and we were going Kayaking instead. Obviously that was the farthest thing from the truth, but she kept it going the whole ride up there.
The picture above, is a beautiful view that we had our "Kodak Moment" thanks to Annie.
Once we arrived at the rainforest, we had to get fitted for the most uncomfortable
and unflattering gear I have ever worn.
I guess safety is more important than fashion and after climing up those hills to get to the ziplines, I am very thankful for the uncomfortable gear!
There was a total of 12 ziplines and 10 different platforms that were spread out across the rainforest. Needless to say, I got a workout in while having an amazing time.
The picture you see is myself stopping about 5 feet short of the platform and I had to use my little existing upper body strength to get to the platform. What a workout!
Thanks to my amazing photographic skills (in my dreams) I was able to catch a couple action shots of Todd. I had Todd do the video while he was zip-lining.
We had an amazing time on the zipline..I didn't even scream once!
After zip-lining we went back on the bus where Annie the tour guide was determined to show us a good time.She had the bus driver pull over like 5 times, this time she showed us a baby Pineapple!
St. Lucia exports coco beans to the U.S to make Chocolate at the Hershey's plant in Pennsylvania. She cracked one open and there is a small coco seed. It wasn't ripe yet so we weren't able to eat it,if we would have it would have been very bitter. 95% of the coco beans on the island is sold to Hershey. The other 5% is left for the islanders. We even had the chance to purchase it at a local store in the city. We can't wait to try it!
Last but not least we learned about the local spice rum. You don't drink this like a normal drink, this is designed to take a shot of it. It is made with a bunch of spices that stay in the bottle. It is 160 proof. It will knock your socks off! Annie was kind enough to let us try some. After we took the shot, she filled us in with a valuable piece of information. This local rum also has the same type of chemical reaction that is used in a little blue pills that men sometimes use.... The bus driver has 12 kids, it must work... I am just going to leave it at that.
I'm so glad you got to zipline..it's so much fun!
