Camping Trip

On Wednesday and Thursday the entire church had a camping trip type thing.  Tuesday we traveled to the town of Creel and stayed at "Sierra Bonita".   About a 4 hour drive from the Colony... that Afternoon we visited a Beautiful waterfall... I'll let the pictures tell most of the story
Thats me braving the tempest... Ok Ok, it really wasn't that bad, although it was one of those places where you'd rather NOT make a miss step :)

The "Road" back to the Falls... the joys of traveling in Mexico

Que Bonito... sorry if you don't know Spanish

Made it through the Road...I mean river

Charlotte, Jesse, and I out on the rocks... Jesse decided to slide down that little stream to the right of where we are standing!   it worked until he got toward the bottom, and he almost got his foot stuck in the crack in the rock.  I managed to make it down without mishap, although Charlotte had a slightly quicker ride down!  

Most of the Youth Group ended up under the falls!!! It was lots of fun... until you had to hike 3 kilometers out, and then ride on the back of truck for another half hour :) 

The view from the dining room... and really pictures just don't do it justice
We all survived the "shower", and thankfully Charlotte is really sore, but is doing much better!

  1. I finally the found the little button at the bottom of the page! Enjoyed looking at the pictures; can't imagine what it would be like to actually be there! In any event, it looks like you boys still know to have fun, so that's good to know.

  2. So beautiful! Wish we could have gone exploring with you all under the waterfall. Makes me jealous. The rest of it though...driving through rivers and such...not so much. Haha, sounds just like Jesse. Not to be left out of a chance for adventure!

  3. It looks like you're having too much fun! Just so ya'll don't decide to move down there. Sliding down that rock slide looks exciting.. and terrifying! Thanks for keeping us posted. I'm glad you're enjoying yourselves.
