Yesterday was amazing. We arrived in Montezuma - our final destination
before we head back to the states. As our bus drove closer to the dry forest you
could feel the wind getting hotter and hotter. When we finally arrived the
activity we had planned was to hike to the waterfalls. I showed up in flip flops as
did half the group but that was not the smartest, we hiked through the forest
over rocks and hills, just waiting to hear the sound of running water. Once we
got there I was a little nervous getting in because of possible random rocks but
it was sooo hot to turn down. Right away we looked for cliffs to jump off and
into the water. Of course we were carful but it truly was an amazing and thrilling
experience. I slowly worked my way up from the lowest to highest height. I kept
climbing up and jumping off for hours. The most exciting part was when Erin
and I took a 15 minute hike to a spot where there were multiple waterfalls with
a jump that was 45 to 55 feet high, a rope swing and then many lower level
jumps. Erin and I were too excited to let this opportunity pass by so we looked
pass our fears and did the 45 to 55 foot jump twice! The feeling of free falling was
indescribable and I hope to return to the waterfalls and do it again! Its beach
time/ Hammock nap time!!! Pura Vida!
