Many thanks everyone!

I have spent this week eating birthday brownies and seeing lots of friends . Did a massive zip line across a canyon on Friday to celebrate too!

Oooh, nice, where abouts? Zipworld?

That's the one, Velocity 2! It's amazing - would really recommend it.

If you look very closely at this image (top of hill, there's a little cabin) you can see the starting point and the zip lines coming from it. There's a much smaller zip line running from right to left too.

Here's me afterwards:

Lovely

Not sure who I feel sorry for more. The guy who paid or the guy who had to travel all the way down in a little harness

All adds to the fun .

They did warn us not to stick out our arms as it'll slow us down and that can happen (or wind can sometimes do it). The current setup also looks a bit different to this too, I think it took off quite well and they upgraded the big zipline a bit (the old ones are still there though).

I am very jealous! Its on my bucket list. Did you do the Bounce below too? My other half would never do the zip but the bounce she would!

I didn't do bounce below, but might do another time. The zip line is so much fun, but it is pretty expensive - however they have very high staffing levels so I'm not entirely surprised it costs a lot to run.

Yeah, totally worth it though!
