Flight of the Gibbon

Yesterday we went up into the jungle outside Chiang Mai for a day with Flight of the Gibbon, one of the original zipline tour companies in Asia.  Among the day's activities were the world's longest single zipline at over 800M, and some up close time with wild gibbons who live on the course.

    I already can't wait to read the kids' "What I did this summer" compositions. Jealous.
