Tag: Puerto Vallarta

Yesterday, the Puerto Vallarta 2014 group headed out of town to zip-line through the jungle.

In a five hour expedition, we took a bus out to Los Veranos Canopy Tour where we zipped down 14 different lines through the jungle.

If you haven’t done the zip-line thing, you must. And if in PV, make sure you go to the Los Veranos guys. They make the experience fun, easy and a blast.  Check out some pics of our day in the wild…

Zip line class. Please note my posture (L in the blue t-shirt) while paying attention.

The first zip-line we were told to twist right for the camera. Michael goes for the money shot.

First run, Alex shows he paid attention in class too…

Craig poses for the camera mid-zip

Gordon had perfect form all day

More perfect form from Gordon

The guides asked if I wanted to try something different, so they let me go upside-down

Please note the perfect Fosse “jazz hand” even in the jungle and upside down…

Michael in mid-zip…

My camera shot…

Ok, so I really have no idea what I was doing at this point….

After forgetting to apply sunscreen (near the equator) for my first day in Puerto Vallarta, I’m talking extra precautions today to make sure I burn no further.

Does this look right?

Normally, our group heads over to the Blue Chairs Resort to hang at the beach.  But this trip we’ve discovered the beach club next door, Mantamar Beach Club, that has a fab infinity pool overlooking the beach. 

The food is tasty and the service has been great.  The cost is about $35 for lounge chairs and towels but $30 of that is applied to food or drink.  Happy dance…

Today’s adventure?  Zip-lining through the jungle of Mexico 🙂
