An amazing team!!!
Kindness, humor, and even an animal biology lesson on top of the incredible thrills! Thomas got the crowd pumped up from the moment we arrived, and Vico did everything he could to ensure our safe descent. The photo and restaurant teams were all there, not forgetting Valérie, the bus driver!
