This past weekend me and a group of friends went to a little town outside of Santiago
for a weekend on the river
its take a while to get there you have to take a bus, train and a taxi
it takes about 4 hours total
we got there on Saturday we had a rafting reservation for 4:30
we got there right in time to get camp set up and head to get geared up for all the fun
once we were given the instructions we started the adventure
our guide is on Chile's national rafting team
her was super nice and spoke pretty good English
the river was a class 3 it was not super intense at all
we didn't loose anyone during our run
but other boats were loosing people left and right
at one point a guy fell out of his raft so our guide went to save him
he rushed to the front of our raft and then proceeded to tell us to go back
so every single one of us thought that meant everyone scoot back a row
well that was defiantly not what he said he just meant for us to paddle backwards
he laughed forever about that
told us we made his day
once we were done rafting we headed to get food and stuff for dinner
it took so super long to get everything cooked
we didn't end up eating till about 11 pm that night
after dinner we headed to bed
the next morning we kinda slept in till about 10
once we got up we headed to breakfast and then just waited around till 1:30 for zip lining
while we were waiting we played a little hackey sack
lets just say im not that great at that game
I tend to exaggerate my kicks a little much
once 1:30 rolled around we headed to the zip lining place
it was not a super long line
it took us about 40 min to do the two lines
you go across the river then back
it was super fun
I didn't got o fast on the first one because the wind was blowing super hard
but the second one was going the direction of the wind and I flew in
I was not expecting to finish so fast
I think i got a little whip lash
once we were don't zip lining we got camp all packed up and headed home
it was a fun little weekend trip
Im already excited to get home and go rafting again!
