ZIPLINING in the Panama Rainforest
After having spent a week in Caison serving on mission with the Church of Eleven22 our team had to come to grips with the reality of the fact that we had to leave and return home. The work that we had done, the people we had met, the prayerfulness of the entire trip could not be compared to anything else most of us had experienced before.
That being said, it had been a lot of long days, short nights, heavy lifting, and heavy praying and testimony sharing. It seemed only appropriate that we take an afternoon before our flight back to the United States to go on a little adventure in the rainforest canopy above Boquete.

Scuba diving on a sunken HOVERCRAFT
Просмотров 1972 месяца назад
I’ve been a certified scuba diver for a long time, and one of the first things I did when I moved to Florida was investing in my own gear. I was not happy with how very little I had been diving since getting my rating, and felt as though owning my gear would incentivize going on more dives. I couldn’t have been more wrong, although I wanted to dive more, life had other plans. Flash forward to J...

I guess the wrap is for the Florida sun. Taking a cruise and this was helpful. The premium seats didn't look that comfortable. Man hardly anybody on it. I thought getting Biden in we could start getting better trains. Even though not as fast. I love a company trying.
@@barrettpickett5603 I’m glad the video helped! The wrap is supposedly getting phased out according to the one gal I spoke with - to give riders a better view
Thanks for stepping out for a wider shot, folks forget how tight their shots are
Yeah it’s hard to really convey the size of these cabins I feel like, so I hope that it helped.
Pro tip: if you forget your wallet or cash you can scan through the tills with an Apple Pay card as if it’s a ventra card.
I am taking coach chicago to portland with 2 sisters. If I bid and win on a bedroom would all 3 of us fit and get the meals?
@@lindanordlund6753 I didn’t know bidding up was available for coach to sleeper cabins. I believe they only hold 2 passengers. You would need to upgrade to a family bedroom for extra beds.
Thank you, my brother, for creating this video! I'm very proud of you for your being on this mission trip. The video is so very professional produced. You have a calling there when you finally decide to hang up your wings in 50 years.
Thanks so much Don. I truly appreciate it.
hey as an international student who lands at chicago, I might have lots of luggage, is it fine if I commute through the blue line with 2 big suitcases and a small band, or is there any luggage limitation?
@@Crimekathadesi nope no luggage restrictions
How do you bid up on the room? Is that before you arrive or once you are on the train?
@@puttothetest it’s before the trip. On this journey I was sent an email about a week before departure asking if I wanted to bid up - which took me to the portal to do that. One the trip I just booked it was available AFTER checkout on the confirmation page
@@NickGoesFar thanks so much! That’s a nice feature that they offer the option when it’s available.
🎉🎉🎉🎉

Isksksks🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very cool, scary but cool. lol 🙌
@@suecav421 the views were so worth the step off the platforms though - just wow!
Nice video! I've been on the Wreck-Reation II many times as well as the first Wreck-Reation, which was the smaller boat that they used to run. Diver's Den is a great group of folks and I continue to dive with them over and over.
They’re a great team and from check in to getting back at the end of the trip they were top notch.
Honestly, I strongly feel that Amtrak needs to make better, new,funtional,spacious, upgraded sleeper cars!!🤔Thanks for sharing!🤗
They have been updating the interiors on their trains, more of the new interiors are “out in the wild” now, I just haven’t been on an Amtrak train since making this video
Looks like an awesome experience. 🙌
It was a great pair of dives
Love the change of scenery and creativity of recording this on a paddleboard!
Thanks! Helps that I really like being out on the water!
I got certified with DD on the hover craft and span 14!! My favorite group of people. I absolutely love them they are pretty much family at this point. Glad yall got the best dive master Niko 💗💗
It was a great trip for sure! Congrats on your certification!
My son and I are taking the Zephyr next month. Booking two roomettes was cheaper than the bedroom by over $500. And we get both sides of the train for views!
That’s awesome! What a great strategy!
My son and I are going to do the same in October. Have fun!
Hi, can you duck dive in the water like in my videos?
I mean, I suppose you could, though I’m not sure that you would get much benefit from it. The boat rate is the same, and the wrecks were all down below 70’ so unless you’re also freediving down that far, you may feel limited on what you can see.
I also choose the upper level? Thinking it would be less busy? Any pros or cons on upper or lower
They're the same seats - but I would say that the lower level is perhaps more isolated from the rest of the train, so maybe easier to get some shut-eye in? I rode in the upper level, I liked that it was on the same level as everything else, and had better views. The upper level is the "main" level on this route, it connects to the observation car, the dining car, etc. The lower levels are mostly bathrooms and storage.
@@NickGoesFar good to know I hope I can switch I thought the top was more isolated!! Thanks safe travels👍🏻
I’m taking same trip in October 👍🏻I choose coach after watching. Several videos ? Can anyone in coach order the steak and dessert?yumm
I'll say this - you're tougher than I am. I rode coach for the short trip from Seattle to Spokane after filming this and I couldn't imagine having to spend 46 hours in those seats. As for ordering steak and dessert - it's available to passengers in coach on a space limited basis, as in - if there isn't space you will not be able to order meals. The little cafe shop in the observation car will be your only source for snacks at that point.
@@NickGoesFar ihave driven back and forth in this route and I90 5-6times in my car w dog when I lived in Vancouver Wa. I think I can make due with the recline seat🤞👌🏻I’m 5’1” I’m frugal😆❤️✌🏻
❤🙌🙏
This was such an amazing trip, God was fully at work in Panama. 🇵🇦
Thanks for the video Nick. Great to see all of the work being done in Jesus' name. Your folks share this video to me and actually I was kind of surprised I did not see a pop-up ad for "A Place for Mom" 😂
quite an adventure - you make it feel more real than most channels! new friend here. fun challenges - good job!
Thanks Mark! I had a lot of fun filming this, but had no idea how tired I would be by the end of it. Next time I do something like this, I think it will be in Europe!
@@NickGoesFar that will be great adventure just make sure u take your gopro so we can all see it!
Love this video style Nick 🫱🏼🫲🏽👏🏼
Thanks @sociallywanderful! It was fun to put something like this together, I really am excited for what’s coming next!
Where you visiting from man ? Best big city in the country 8 years in a row 👍
I’m not sure when I’ll be back in Chicago, as of now it’s not in the books.
Loved the content :-) AND the history of it all . . .
I’m glad you enjoyed it my friend!
And some of my dad’s friends and I met the king
I’ve never had a royal audience, so cool!
Ty
A lot of them and I went to that saber cat one with my dad
That’s awesome! Did you enjoy it!
Yes
Love you
Nice
It’s an awesome ride, super easy, and crazy scenic. How ya been buddy?
Looks awesome! It's going on the list!
I went to that game! I enjoyed it even though they lost.
Same! They played a good game (for all I know).
Went to one in Australia. It was a ton of fun
I’ll be going to more in the future I’m sure
I’m Peruvian but I don’t like this cause I like guinea pigs a lot
It was an interesting experience. I don’t know that I would order it again, but I’m glad I tried it once.
Orange is 25 min to the loop from midway
It's awesome that both airports are connected like this - it was super convenient.
Great video and very informative. I’ll be taking the Zephyr in July from Chicago to Davis, CA. Can’t wait for that journey to happen!
That’s going to be awesome! Enjoy!
I love this bro!
I’m glad!
Nice bridge
It’s a great trail, nicely maintained and the boardwalk at the end is amazing too.
When and how do you bid on upgrades
I received an email from Amtrak a couple of weeks prior to our travel date inviting me to bid, it took me to a website specifically for that. If sleepers are fully booked though, they don’t send the email.
Great video! Looking at doing this route soon, also in a bedroom. Question - understanding that you can go either to Seattle or Portland, which one enables you to stay on the same train that you started on? Traveling with my elderly dad, so the fewer train transitions the better. Thanks!
Technically either. If you’re going to Seattle you’ll be in one sleeper car, if you’re going to Portland you’ll be in the other. I prefer the Seattle route as the trip through the cascades is more scenic. The diner car goes to Seattle, the observation car goes to Portland.
Sick video man. We are taking Amtrak from Chicago to New Orleans this August. I can't wait!
It’s a great experience! Enjoy!
Great video! I live in Orlando and will be cruising out of Miami in two weeks. Were taking the Brightline for the first time, so this was super helpful!
Glad I could provide some insight! I hope you enjoy the train ride!
How far is the Miami port from the Miami Brightline station?
Approaching retirement I started watching Amtrak, mostly Empire Builder videos. Based on where I live I soon figured out that getting to the train, getting on & off, getting to my final destination, or back home after trip, is always going to be done in the darkest hours of the night. I wish someone would do a video about getting on & off Amtrak at 3:00 am in the middle of nowhere, with stations & entire small towns locked up tight until normal business hours. No steak, trying to sleep in the daytime, and up in the middle of my night for breakfast or lunch. Not everyone lives in Chicago, Seattle or Portland!
And I don’t either. I flew in to Chicago to meet the train. All the late night stops, for the most part I slept through, and the steak was available all dinner services
Just got off empire builder too, steak was great! I had a roomette.. how do you bid? You upgraded to a ? I’ve heard some older trains had sinks and toilets in roomettes.. I wasn’t so lucky .. was a great trip though , no linens on our tables though 😊thanks for sharing !
I currently have a roomette purchased, but the bid on the mobile app started out at $360 for the bedroom. Since I am riding by myself, I think I'll keep the roomette. I am returning to Detroit First class on United and that will cover the cost of that ticket for me. :)
THIS “fastest train” takes 3 hours and 10 minutes from Miami to Orlando in a distance of 234 miles. Meanwhile the new line Barcelona-Roma takes 2. Hours and 45 minutes-in a distance of 357 miles. The “fastest train “ is just an illusion in FLORIDA
Right, but I didn’t say it was the fastest train in the world. And last I checked neither Barcelona or Rome are in Florida…so you can’t really compare the two.
✨ *Promosm*
Not sure what that means, but thanks for commenting. 👍
Now thats an engaging travel vlog. Pretty fun!
Thanks man! I appreciate that.
Now I want to do this!
It was a lot of fun, honestly what an easy way to get around, and for such low fares!
Great Video! I have done 20 gowild flights (winter pass), once to Phoenix from Baltimore when they use to do the nonstop but the rest all From Philly to Fort Myers, One thing with the gowild pass is that it works best with over severed routes like Philly to Fort Myers (2 to 3 per day) I always wondered what it would be like to go from place to place on the pass not knowing what was next!
The pass works great, I had no issues outside of timing with the blackout dates. I’m definitely going to be using it more! Probably not every day though like in the video! 😂
That was a fun video! Well done!
Thank you so much! It was a lot of work, a lot of fun, and wooo was I tired by the end of it.
pure Stupidity!
What makes you say that?
@@NickGoesFar If you gota ask, your the problem!
@@jhaedtler you’re*
Good video, tho no challenges in Phx? My home airport when i lived in Az was Tucson. That waterwall was cool in Vegas
No, because of the blackout dates the only flight I was able to get only had me connecting through Phoenix for a handful of hours. My big challenge there was finding a place in the terminal to sleep 😴
@@NickGoesFar Gotcha!
