While swimming in Waikiki one morning Sveta spotted a parasail off in the distance and said she wanted to try that. So the next morning off we go to the marina for an exciting new adventure. The closer the time came to launch the more nervous Sveta became. She started reciting her last will and testiment in case there were any mishaps. You might notice a hint of fear in the 2nd photo shown above when Sveta is being launched off the rear of the boat. :-) Once she got underway it was no problem. They let out 600 feet of line from the winch at the rear of the boat making the parachute fly high in the air. Sveta had a once in a lifetime thrill that day that she will always remember. What was I doing you ask ? I stayed in the boat taking photos. At the end of the event a rainbow appeared as we were headed back to the marina.
