White Water


As a group decision to not have a late night i was wondering why Liam, Yosha and i were all running home at almost 3 in the morning knowing we had to get up at 5 to catch a bus to Vera Cruz for our adventure filled wkend. Amazingly after a less than 2hrs of sleep we all managed to get up and make our way to the uni in time to meet up with our fellow adventurers who many had not even bothered sleeping and just came straight from partying. The bus trip was some what average but i saw some pretty cool and very different vegetation along the road which went from almost the coldest weather i've experienced to being warm enough to go white water rafting. Upon arriving to mexicoverde we were shown to our safari style tents. After a few quick instructions in spanish and a short bus ride we were sitting in rafts on rio pescado and then the next thing i knew our raft was jammed against the first massive rock and quickly filling with water meanwhile i had be sucked out of the raft and was just kinda rafting freestyle on my ass down the rocks until i managed to get my feet wedged into some rocks to stop and get pulled back into the boat but then a liam came out of no where and smashed into me and off we went again until finally a rope was thrown and we were pulled to what seemed to be the saftey of the raft.
Rafting was awesome fun it went for ages and we missioned down heaps of rapids, gonna do it again before the end of this trip. Back at camp we decided not to bother with some suana thing that had been arranged and just catch up on sleep until it was dinner time. Dinner was buffet style, setup outside under these big trees full of wikkid lights was goods.
