Tourism & Travel | | Spanish term or phrase: CHACHI | Part of a list of comments about Tenerife. This is the orginal text I received, written by a non-native. I presume this is a term used in Tenerife/the Canary Islands. Anybody know what it means? Ta!
Minutes of glorious …nearly ending this magnificent flight , can believe how lucky I am jumping in paragliding from the mountain just to end up in Socorro beach , …ohhh here we go , bend my knees towards my stomach and …ohhhhh we got to the end. When I thank everyone , I stop for one second and enjoy the moment , take a deep breath and once more I think … I cant believe I jumped up from a mountain just to end up landing by the sea , blue crispy sky and crystalline sea water….**CHACHI** another day in paradise |

I also say "WICKED" but I think I'm getting old. The kids probably cringe.
There are many options here, but "cool" would be the better, safer, more standard one IMO. |

| Grading comment Cheers, Kate! This is exactly what I had in mind, going on the context, but I'd never heard the word before so wasn´t sure.
