What It Was REALLY Like

[Azusateach]

Hey All!

I just got some pictures from one of the guys on the rafting trip.  He took a big ol' Nikon and his pictures are impressive.  He rode on the other raft most of the time (there were 2 on our trip), so he got some really neat pictures of our raft running some of the rapids.  They were better than any amusement park ride!  

I promise ... these will be the last pictures of my trip.

Here we are, heading into Lava Falls, the biggest rapid on the river:




The raft is 35' long -- and nobody fell out:


Another rapid, and down we go:


Oops!  Where'd we go?


The raft was very flexible:




And back out the other side:



Thanks for indulging me -- again.  If you haven't guessed, this was an awesome trip.  I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
