Today was our last full day in Mexico-- and it was a fun one! We caught our shuttle over to Xplor where we had a full day of fun activities. After going inside the entrance, we found our locker and put sun screen on, etc. Then our first activity was the jeeps/amphibious vehicles. It was a super fun ride through the jungle and caves! Some of the caves were full of water and we drove through the muddy, clay-like water. Bill took the first big cave way too fast and it got water and mud all over us and inside the jeep! (I think there is a picture of it their camera's got of this down below! It's all out of order though, as we took our own pictures and we paid to have them take pictures, as well.) After that, we rafted through an underground cave, which was pretty fun. Then we zip lined the biggest circuit of zip lines we've ever done before and got lots of exercise hiking up all the towers to the next line. On the very last line, we ended in water and we got completely wet! It was so much fun! After we finished on the zip line, we went to get our buffet lunch, which was included. It was actually really good food. We stuck to the Mexican food, as we won't get this good stuff when we go back home! It tasted sooooo good! And, of course, I had a lot of fruit again! The papaya is sooooo yummy, I just can't get enough of it! There was a lot of different foods to choose from, though! We got chips and salsa and guacamole and some more yummy tacos! After lunch, we went back to the jeeps and did a couple more runs on different courses. It's pretty fun! Then we headed to the showers and got all cleaned up and as dry as we could and then headed for the gift shop, where I bought a rash guard for me and also one for Katelyn. We couldn't find anything McKenzie would like, so we decided to get her something from the airport. After it was closing time for the park, we headed out to find our shuttle, which was difficult as everyone kept pointing to the opposite end of the parking lot... but we finally found it! (And we weren't the last ones there, either!) When we got back to our room we showered and got all cleaned up for the Edward Jones Farewell dinner. It was on the beach (same as the first night), and the food was amazing! It was a beautiful evening-- we took photos at the photo booth they had set up. I have a picture of the picture they gave us at the very end of this post. The weather was beautiful, but very windy! It made it a really nice temperature though. The weather has been so good for us this whole week. The only time it has rained at all is either when we were indoors, or on a bus! It has really been a beautiful and relaxing week! I am ready to go home tomorrow, though. One week is just the perfect amount of time to be gone and feel rested and then be ready to get back to normal life again. We travel home all day tomorrow.
Adios Mexico!!!
