Day 7 - Puerto Vallarta

Today I woke up to a new adventure. Zip lining! You strap yourself into a harness and then two clamps hold you to a guy wire that hangs two hundred feet in the air. I was sure I'd be terrified but to my surprise I was totally exhilarated by the whole experience.

I have to admit though....there was one part of the whole process I didn't enjoy. There were 12 zip lines we were suspended from throughout the morning but in between each one we had to climb a lot of steps built into the side of the mountain set in the jungle outside of Puerto Vallarta. It was an exhausting climb, but worth every minute for the sheer thrill of flying through the air at great speeds and great heights.
Added note: When I returned home the news on the TV was that a man visiting Mexico tried the zip line and something happened and he fell 65 feet, broke his back in 3 places and they don't know if he will be paralyzed or not. Then last month a woman visiting the Carribbean fell from a zip line to her death when her harness broke. If I had of read this before I left for Mexico...there is a 100% chance I would have never done it. So with that said....I've done it once and once is enough. On to the next daring adventure! :-)

Later in the evening we decided to treat ourselves for our last night in Puerto Vallarta. We grabbed a taxi and the driver suggested we go to the Happy Lobster to help satisfy our seafood craving. The service and food was great. Before long we were back at our hotel to pack for our return home tomorrow.
