life is bueno!!!

Do you ever have those days that you wish would never end?? Well that's how our day was yesterday. Our voyage began at 8 am where we headed to the river to engage in white water rafting with one of the most experienced and energetic guides i have ever had the privilege to be with. While our beacon of the river was laying out our instructions,,i couldn't pry my eyes from this 55 foot high rock. It was love at first sight and I couldn't help but to interrupt by saying "please tell me we can we jump off that thing?" Only 5 out of the 8 of us could make the ascend on the backside of the rock. When we victoriously conquered the climb,, my fellow companions(who were all male) started to admit that it's a bit higher than they had imagined it. So i said,,"you guys gonna just stand there or are ya going to jump?" One of them said "ladies first" and before they could finish their laugh with their imaginary high fives,,i rolled my eyes and leaped into the river below. Of course they all jumped soon after cause they couldn't be shown up by a chick.We spent the rest of the afternoon in deep concentration and solid formation as we conquered the river. It rocked!!!! After lunch i drove us to the Rio Zacate where we took a short 45 minute hike up into the dense jungle. Our destination was a beautiful waterfall surrounded by small swimming holes. There were also rocks all around that were good for jumping off of.

It was one of those days were i wish all my friends could have shared it with me!!!!!!!
