It's our last full day today -- the sadness of a short vacation! Once again, enjoyed that 8-hour long sleep and leisurely breakfast. We've pretty much staked out our "spot" at the pool now, an area of 8 loungers with shade -- we start the day in the right group of 4 and then move to the left 4 as the sun shifts. I'm reading "Outlive" on this vacation -- not sure when I'll actually get around to finishing it once we go back to California, but at least for now, doing a lot of learning about all the ways we are slowly and fastly dying. If nothing else, it is a fairly effective way to avoid getting too lazy and overeating on vacation! I am making my 10,000+ steps each day at least!
We technically had booked a snorkel/boating adventure for the day but I cancelled it a few days before we left for the vacation. With only 4 days/3 nights, it seemed like a bit too much. I can say now that was a great call. With age, I am really embracing "slower" travel.
So today's big highlight was the trip out to Vista Paraiso for a sunset horseback ride. Punta Mita has had a few really lovely sunsets.
Pretty nice family shot!
The twins were particularly happy with this excursion because of how exciting the ride was allowed to be (ie, they let everyone get up to a trot whenever we felt like it...which meant the twins were trotting a LOT) and they even took us on controlled cantors at the end!
(I may have put the video on time lapse mode by mistake...but doesn't she look like she's speeding?!? I know we only did it for a few seconds, but have to say that cantor-ing hurts a lot less than trotting...)
