Puerto Vallarta...

As most of you know, we try and take a yearly trip to Cancun. Well this year we decided to try something new and go to Puerto Vallarta! I was pretty nervous to go somewhere different since we have been to Cancun so many times and we feel comfortable there. But, after it was all said and done, I'm so glad we went there!! We had a BLAST!!
The whole reason I wanted to go there was because they had a tour that I wanted to do SO bad! And honestly, I would go back just to do this tour again! It was amazing! We started out on a speed boat that took us across the bay to this beautiful jungle! Then we hopped on this huge truck thing that took us up this crazy narrow road to our destination. From there, we rode mules YES, I said mules as in donkey's, up this STEEP sandy mountain side. I'm not gonna lie...there were times I thought I might die! Luckily for me I got the slowest most stubborn donkey of the bunch so we took our sweet time getting to the top! Once we reached the top, we rode a total of 14 zip lines down through the most beautiful jungle I've seen! It was incredible! We also repelled down a couple of waterfalls. (VERY SCARY but so much fun)
This was the BEST tour I have EVER done! I'm ready to go back and do it again! Unfortunately, they don't let you take any pictures because this is their way of making money! And I wasn't about to pay $100 for some pictures of me harnessed up cause let me tell ya...they are NOT flattering at all!! =)
We also took another tour where they take you across the ocean on a HUGE catamaran and you get to watch this awesome mayan show in the most incredible jungle. After the show, we had a romantic candle lit dinner.
The rest of the trip we were able to relax and spend some quality time together. Just the 2 of us! It was one of the best trips we have gone on!

This is on our balcony...so pretty!It rained almost every night!! I loved it! There were even some crazy lightning storms! Coco Loco minus the loco!! =) Our favorite pool!Now this is the life!!!Ha ha! Hubba planking! Me attempting to plank! NOT CUTE! On our way over to zip line. This boat went crazy fast!! All geared up and ready to go on the best zip line tour ever!!
Isn't the gear flattering?? These were our guides/entertainment on the way over to our 2nd tour. They were hilarious! Pulling in to our destination! GORGEOUS!!Cute little girl dancing on some jagged rocks! YIKES!This was the stage that they did the show on! It was AMAZING! Hubba just being Hubba! Our romantical dinner! Headed back after a fun night!This kind of shows you how huge the catamaran was. Its a good thing too cause on our way back the waves were HUGE! Awwww, this makes me want to go back so bad!!! I had such a good time with my love!! I think every married couple needs to take these kinds of vacations together!! It's like honeymooning all over again!!
