Last of Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico was absolutely the best.  Ben and I love exploring new parts of the world and it was really nice to get to see it together.  It was sad that the boys didn't get to experience it as well, but they sure had a lot of fun with their grandparents :)

 A banana tree where we were staying. 

 Iguanas everywhere! They were pretty much the equivalent of Puerto Rican squirrels.

 Our "front yard" It was a beautiful beach without public access so there were hardly any people.  It was perfect.  On our last day we rented some snorkeling gear and went out here and it was awesome.  A beautiful reef with tons of colorful fish.

 Dinner at a close by Tiki Bar.

 Water falls at San Sebastian

 We went swimming in here.  I thought it was a little chilly, but Ben didn't mind.

 Ben climbing up.  This was as far as he went though because they were slippery rocks.

 The other water fall there.

 Random beach pic.

 Living life and enjoying some adult drinks :)

Walking along Jobos Beach, this is where Ben has done some surfing in the past.

All in all I totally recommend Puerto Rico to anyone who can go!

Puerto Rico - Zipline

On Thursday while we were in Puerto Rico we spent the morning going to zipline!  We did "The Monster" (which if anyone watches Jimmy Fallon - he did a segment on it).  It is the longest zipline in the Americas and the 2nd longest in the world! The cable cord is 1.57 miles long, you reach the speed of 95 mph and its over 1250 feet high.  I can't believe I did it, but it was awesome.

We had to go up to the 3rd floor to get suited up.

 Here we go.  Now to cross that suspension bridge and climb up 5 more flights of stairs to get to our platform.

 I asked to go first! I was glad they have to let you go and I wasn't in charge of jumping or pulling a cord or anything.

 Next was Ben's turn (they let him go like 10 seconds after me)

 The worst part for me was lifting my hands up off the platform.  All you could see what the fall to the parking lot below.

 He's off!

 Even though he stated after he ended up passing me on the way down :)

 Ahhh we made it!

 Getting ready to get on the pick up truck to head back

 We conquered the Monster!!
