Repelling down the canyon to the river

I took this photo from a platform over the river, looking down onto a platform that straddles a narrow canyon.  You see a cable on the right.   That cable is the method of getting from the platform where I am to the platform where you see people below.

This is part of the zip lining course at the adventure tour of Hacienda Guachipelin, about 90 minutes northeast of Tamarindo.  At this point in the course, you repel down towards the river.  The next step is to do a Tarzan swing across the river.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.  This week we are showing photos of Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia, a very picturesque spot.
