Day 23b--Car train in Adrenalin Valley

After the museum visit, we moved on to more waterfall hikes and something new, a car train ride.

A short hike to this beauty.  Unique was the boardwalk that extended out
the side of the canyon to get here.  Ice cold water from a karst spring.

Example of the typical roads we are on.  Narrow, no shoulders
blind corners, speedy, local drivers and great views!

I had to include this.....We found this wasp having a meal on a poor unnamed bug
on our car door.  The circle of life.

They call this Adrenalin Valley because of all of the sports enthusiasts that descend here. 
Hang gliding, 
rafting and kayaking, backpacking, gliders, etc, etc.  Plus all the winter sports.

We have driven on board a car train.  Through a series of tunnels, this cuts our drive
time from 2.5 hours to 30 minutes.
Bumpy, smelly ride, but quite an experience.
And, yes, you do have to stay in your car!
