We got home last night after being gone for exactly four weeks. It is hard to believe all that happened in those four weeks. In some ways it seems like the accident and when my family was here was forever ago when we really just said goodbye to them three weeks ago. It was a lot of mixed emotions coming home, that we are still sorting through and processing. We are taking it one day at a time and just trying to move forward after such a long, strange break.
I still have a couple Thailand posts to catch up on, so here we go....
On Sunday (January 8) we signed up to do Flight of the Gibbon. This is a ziplining adventure through the rain forest. We had heard good things about it and discussed it with my family and we all decided it would be a fun thing to do. Once we cancelled all of the original plans, Chad and I debated whether or not to sign up for it again as we re-planned our trip. We waited for a little while to see how I was feeling. Head injuries/bruising/swelling + ziplining = a little risky.... but thankfully (praise God!) by the time we got to Chiang Mai I was feeling really good and knew it wouldn't be an issue. SO GLAD we decided to do it. It was so much fun and a great adventure.
According to the website, it is "the largest and highest rainforest canopy adventure in the world". It is 3 hours, 39 stations and skybridges and so much fun!
There were Arabica coffee bean trees along one of the hikes. Chad picked some berries and ate the raw coffee beans. He loves all things coffee :)

ziplining "honeymoon style"
It was so beautiful being up in the canopy!
After ziplining we had a delicious lunch and visited Kompong Falls before they dropped us off at our hotel.
If you're ever in Chiang Mai, we would totally recommend doing Flight of the Gibbon!

That looks awesome!!! I could do the zipline, but NEVER walk across that bridge. I'm so glad y'll had a great time!!! Thanks for sharing!
Wow! Amazing!
So maybe I wouldn't have been able to do that - I know it would be different if I was there but looking at the pictures makes me not so sure!!! So glad you got to do it and experience it all
I've loved reading about your time in Thailand! Sounds like it was an awesome trip. Whenever we go someday I may just reproduce your trip, haha!
