March 30, 2017 - Treetops

Hi everyone.  Today we went back to the Brevard Zoo area with an extra days entrance from our last visit.  Although we revisited the zoo, our focus was to do a little treetop view visit.

This time is was a turn for the kids to get into action.  Tyler and Eli were strapped into their harnesses and followed their guide up onto the lines.

On the lower portion for the kids, Grammie's feet didn't have to leave the ground when taking pictures.

They had fun going from one tree stand to another.

Having never had experience with the system, it was very safe as one was always connected to the cable.

Tom and Monica enjoyed the higher altitude above the animal cages.

Everyone was treated to an after dinner rocket launch.  Although launches have been a common occurrence since the 60's, this was the first launch using a previously used rocket.

It's neat how the people still cheer up and down the beach when the rocket takes off.

Tomorrow morning we will begin our return trip back home, but not before visiting Augusta National and the Boston Marathon.  Still plenty to do before the snow is gone.
Thanks for keeping track of Grammie's whereabouts.
