Sabado – 30
de Junio.
Día 16. “Las
Estacas”
So it’s official, Mom and
Dad I just may never come home (: Another beautiful, relaxing day in Mexico.
This morning we woke up to rain, which definitely did not make us happy because
we were on our way to an Eco Park for a day of swimming and fun. After 2 hours,
multiple detours, road closures, and traffic we finally made it to Las Estacas.
While it was still sprinkling our true Minnesotan spirits showed as we were
some of the only ones jumping off the cliffs into the crystal clear
water to
float down the river. Don’t worry parents, they weren’t THAT high, but we did
have lots of fun diving off and acting silly. The sun finally decided to come
out around noon and our day really started! Cliff jumping, swimming down the
river, multiple rope swings, pools, and zip lines filled our day with so much
fun! The rope swings were definitely a favorite for all as we got quite
creative trying to get as high as we could out of the water before jumping in-
the girls definitely had advantage with the boys catapulting us as far as they
could! (: At one point we started at the waterfall at one end of the park and
swam down the river for about 30 minutes till the end of the park, it was quite
the swim! Then Gina, Carley, and I decided we wanted to try and swim up the
river against the current- That only lasted about 10 minutes and we were too
tired to go any further and resorted to lying by the pool to get some sun! All
together an amazing day spent in beautiful Mexico (:
