Dream Trip 2008: September

Great Travel Moment

Everyday my husband and I did the flying trapeze on our honeymoon at Club Med, Turks and Caicos. The circus team greeted us with smiles and jokes, encouraging us, teaching us new tricks. The feeling of climbing that narrow, shaky ladder and jumping off the platform only to let go of the bar, putting all of my trust into Kevin or Ashley running the lines, and Max - catching me, was the most exhilarating feeling of my life. It was so liberating, and the fact that they genuinely cared about us having a great time made it that much better. I asked if they had ever eaten at the fancy restaurant (they must accompany guests). No. In appreciation, we invited them. I photographed this after dinner. My hands hurt so bad that I couldn't do trapeze that night, but I will never forget, thanks to amazing people like Max.
