Puerto Vallarta - Day 3

Monday morning, bright and early, we reported to Vallarta Adventures all ready for our Outdoor Adventure!
Waiting for our boat. This is right before Jamie got pooped on by a bird. Gross, but so funny. Sorry, J! ;)

Marina Nuevo Vallarta

On the speedboat

We then sped across Banderas Bay to an inlet where there was a little town and marina.

We then boarded old military 4x4 vehicles and bumped up the hillside into the Sierra Madres


When we arrived at base camp, we got a quick safety lesson and then were harnessed and ready to go! We then rode mules up the mountain and spent the next 2 hours zip-lining and rappelling over and down the mountains, along a river and even IN the river! It was amazing! I will post pictures of this part when I get them from Mike and Jamie...

Back at base camp we dried out, looked at pictures of our adventure and ate some yummy homemade quesadillas.



We then headed back down to the marina and once again hopped onto our speedboat and sped away back to Nuevo Vallarta.

On our way out of Vallarta Adventures, we stopped and watched the dolphins. They are so amazing! :)


That evening there was another huge storm, and I was able to get some awesome bolts of lightning at the beginning and the end...
