RSSCosta Azul canyon
Nov 12
An early start this morning (9am is early, right?), as we were off for some adventure! Adventure in this case is defined as some zip lining and rappelling, high over the Costa Azul canyon in the Mexican desert. How much adventure? The longest zip line was about 500 metres, and the rappel was 100 metres of sheer rock face!
Really, there isn’t much to say apart from “Wow!” This was just so much fun; a really great way to get the circulation going and start the day. If you’re ever over here this is a must-do activity.
There are several companies running these kinds of events. We went with “Costa Azul Canopy Extreme Tours”. Don’t let the word “extreme” cause too much panic, it’s really very safe – and heaps of fun. Check them out at http://www.canopycostaazul.com; we can’t recommend them highly enough. The guides were all great fun, and very careful.
Photos from the tour are at http://photos.stocksfamily.org/Travel/Mexico/Costa-Azul-canyon/. Note that for safety reasons they don’t let you carry anything with you; these pics were all taken by their photographer, all credit goes to them.
