Some Recent Adventures!

I haven't blogged much recently...mostly because I realize that I only have several days left down here and want to spend every second of it soaking it up by spending it out in nature or interacting with the people down here.
But in the past week or so, a lot has happened! I was able to practice my salsa dancing with some of the best salsa dancers ever.
I had the opportunity to go to Plaza Sesamo (a sweet water park/amusement park in Monterrey) with Imperio de Amor.
I went rock climbing! No...not the fake, safe kind of rock climbing. This was like, legit, hard core rock climbing! No harnesses until I climbed up a 75 foot rock, and then repelled down. Then we hiked up to the top of a mountain and there was a pointed rock right at the peak....it looked like a sweet place to take pictures but if you leaned to far to one side, you would fall about 200 feet down to your death. But guess what?! I did it! I sat at the tip of it! It was absolutely exhilirating! Then today, being that it was my day off, I was able to go with one of the other interns and staff members to make a special trip out to Manantial de Amor to say goodbye to Ady. Here's some pics!


I'm a professional salsa dancer now ;)


Chillin' at Plaza Sesamo with intern Sammy :)

I also learned how to flush a toilet without a flusher!!!! It was so awesome! Ha ha I was offering to flush everyone elses toilet in the bathroom!


Repelling down the rock I climbed!



Alright sorry this post is so short and choppy, groups are arriving back though and dinner is calling my name :) Until then, this is creeper Cassie, signing out ;)
