Woke up this morning and walked to Half Moon Bay and went Snorkeling. I was tons of fish and some great coral. I was a little creeped out because I went by myself. There was a barracuda hanging out and watching my every move. Transfixed on the bright fish I floated along and enjoyed the relaxing swim. After snorkeling I retreated to Coco Lobo to get ready for our Canopy Tree Adventure. We were picked up by a taxi at 10 am and headed a few miles inland to South Shores Canopy Tour. We immediately were hurried into the equipment room and strapped into harnesses and helmets by handfuls of men speaking Spanish way too fast. Apparently there was some confusion with the taxi cab, we were told that the cost was included and the manager ended up having to pay the driver. Opps. So off we went to the canopy. The tour guides were smothering us with compliments as they strapped us up on the lines. We were given a 2 minute rapid saftely course and off we went. By the third line we were strapped Super Woman style, facing the ground as if you were flying over the tree tops. The lines were rigged across the canopy and ended on a platform. The rush was exhilarating. The gentlemen on the tour offered to take us out on the town later in the week. Karaoke anyone??? After the zip line tour we walked to Las Rocas and cooled off in the infinity pool. Dined on the bar swings and baked in their beach chairs. We stumbled down to the Banana Rama bar and met a couple people from the states. Later on that evening we met the infamous Chad and Sashi, owns wine bar De La Vina Wine Bar and Jug Shop. We followed the bar crawl down the village and enjoyed some rum along the way. Things get a little hazy here but we had a good time and enjoyed the people that we spent time with.
