Day 55

A couple days ago, Courtney and I went ziplining through the jungle. We started by taking a gorgeous 15 minute boat ride up the river. Then you have to walk several kilometers (which means nothing) through the the jungle to get to the zip lining platforms. All I know is that is was serious hiking and we were dripping with sweat! But it was cool because along the way the guides would point out animals or plants and what they are called. He showed us a lot of plants that they use for medicine and even a tree that you can cut open and drink from the inside. It reminded me that if stranded in the woods, I would have no idea what to do with any tree or plant haha. But then we finally got to the platforms and got to zip line across 9 cables. It was super fun with some very pretty views! Then we hiked all the way back and then took the boat back to Rurre. It was a fun trip because not only did we get to zip line but we got a little jungle tour in as well.

We are flying to La Paz tomorrow at noon. Today is our last full day in Rurre. It's a little sad to leave our new friends but we are also very excited to be home soon :)
