Zip Line

We went on a zipline adventure through the jungle of Mexico. 14 zip
lines. We were at the end of the group and our guides were gracious
to let us ride upside down and spinning whenever we wanted.

Bucerias

On Monday we enjoyed a 4.5 mile stroll along the beach to a quaint
town called Bucerias. There we enjoyed empanadas, shopping, eat
lunch, and simply being silly and carefree.

Releasing Turtles

Tiffany perfectly timed our Sunday sunset walk to coordinate with the
turtle release. The local college sponsors a program to relacate
turtle nests to a safe location and then allows guests to help release
the baby turtles each evening. It was incredible to hold those little
ones in our hands and see them take the first of many steps towards
the beginning of a lifeteime of adventures.

Grocery Shopping

I have to admit, I was a smidge horrified at our shopping experience.
All that Meat sitting around. . .

However, there is a beauty to grocery shopping without children. We
bought all sorts of goodness. . . fresh tortillas, avacados, and lots
and lots of LIMES.

Fajitas!!

Mexico Day 1

After unpacking and walking along the beach, we headed across the
street to get Fajitas. Yum!!! The guacamole in the spoon was a extra
fun treat and my veggie fajitas were delicious topped with fresh pico,
guacamole, beans, and rice.

Oh Mexico. . .

I love the James Taylor song, "Oh Mexico, never really been, but I'd
sure like to go. . . Ohhhh Mexico."

I spent the last week with five girlfriends in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico.

Day 1: 11 PM drive to airport. 12:55 AM red eye. De-ice the plane
in Anchorage for an hour. Barely make my connection in Portland.
Stop in San Diego. Arrive in Puerto Vallarta. Make my way through
immigration and customs then wait, and wait, and wait. 18 hours from
the time I left my home in Alaska, I meet up with my girlfriends and
the fun begins.

This is what awaited us in Neuvo Vallarta. . .
