viaje a mendoza. day 1.

here are the details of our trip to mendoza. it was awesome to say the least.

We left Montevideo (our street) at 5:00 Saturday morning and Meganne, Kasey, Holly and I rode to the airport together and met up with the rest of the group. We jumped on the plane and landed in Mendoza around 9ish. Little did we know we would be conquering the world between that time and the time we hit the pillow that night. When we got there we immediately put our stuff in the hotel and then drove off for the adventures to begin. On the bus we ate a tasty bunch of treats and enjoyed every delicious bite. We got to the place where we were about to go rafting and went to change into our awesome body suits. We all looked real good. I mean really really good. When everyone was ready we broke into groups and hopped into our rafts. Then we took off down the Andes River. It was CRAZY. I loved it! When we finished dominating the river we were fed a huge lunch that had been prepared for us. Once our plates were licked we got back into the bus and drove down the rode to go zip-lining through the canopy. This was the GREATEST. There were 5 or 6 lines that we rode on and went through small parts of the mountains and then across the river on the last couple lines. It was crazy to look around and be reminded that our God made all of those mountains. He is so good to give that to us. These mountains sing to him and are more evidence of his great desire to pursue his people. After we zip-lined we were all wiped and we went back to the hotel. A group of us went to dinner and then called it a night. You might like to know that at that restaurant and all over Mendoza the napkins are the size of a finger puppet and made of tissue paper. Useful right?
