Ride

I did not take this photo.  The guy who ran the parasailing company took it. It was all part of the experience.  This is one of the best rides I ever took.  The good-looking guy next to me is my nephew, Kevin.  He agreed to go up with me because I love to parasail.  The photo was taken in Myrtle Beach, SC in 2012.

I have only done it twice but it's amazing! It's so peaceful once you are up in the air. If you enjoy heights, you'd love it. It's like being on a swing high above the ocean. : )

I adore it. I'd do it again if I got the chance.

Oh, that's thrilling! I didn't know there were 'tandem' parasailing rides.

Yes, and that makes it even more fun. You get to share the experience. Also, the guy in charge of this one said that it was a more stable ride if you had two or even three people depending upon the weight. He said the wind didn't whip you about so much.

Oh wow! It's not for me as I am really not good with heights- even going over some bridges gives me palpitations - but it must have been quite something.

It's great fun but only if heights don't bother you. It's a wonderful chance to get a good luck at the view. I kind of wish I'd had the nerve to take a camera up but I just knew I'd get excited and drop it in the ocean. lol

Wow! I don't think I'd have the nerve.

It's one of those things that look scarier when you're watching them. If you don't mind heights, it's not at all bad. I don't recommend it if heights bother you but if they don't, it's lovely.

It's wonderful and the view is brilliant! It's like being a kite. If you aren't afraid of heights then it's not as scary as you might think. It looks scary if you just sit and watch others do it, but if you are the one going up, you are too busy being amazed by it all to worry.

We both like heights. He enjoys them more than I do but we both love a great view. It was a whole lot of fun.
