Jalcomulco
This past weekend, I went to a town in the state of Veracruz with 13 other students from my University. It was another trip that was organized by the Mexican students. One of the girls who was supposed to go got sick so Kate went in her place. We slept in these rooms with Mosquito Nets around the beds but I still got bit all over my legs. I also had bug spray with me that I put on a lot but the mosquitos here are very persistent because everyone in the group got bit. On Saturday, we did an obstacle course that consisted of climbing up a wall and then ziplining to another tree. From there, we walked on rope across to another tree and ziplined 3 more times. The pictures are a little dark but if you look closely you can see me. It definitely was a workout because I've been sore for the past two days haha. On Saturday, we woke up early and went white water rafting for 3 hours. It was my first time and I absolutely loved it. Not too many people fell out of the raft, Kate fell about twice, me about once. At one point when the water was calm, we all jumped out and went swimming. Afterwards, we hiked to a natural swimming pool and went swimming again. All the food was included in the trip and it was great. Jalcomulco is only about 3 1/2 hours away from Puebla. I got really good mosquito cream for my bites so I'm feeling better already. Tonight begins the celebration for my 21st Birthday!!!!!! If you can, I would love to hear from everyone my number is 011-521-222-528-5576....if not, I understand. I miss everyone a lot!!!
