Day 5: Puerto Vallarta Extreme Canopy Excursion

If you ever get the chance to visit Puerto Vallarta, you HAVE to go check out Vallarta Adventures!!  It took A LOT of convincing to get Scott to get on board with this excursion, but I luckily found a deal on their website for over 50% off of what the cruise line was asking, so we booked the Outdoor Adventure (or the Extreme Canopy!)  Unfortunately, we did not know that land time (Puerto Vallarta time) was an hour ahead of ship time, so we had to cancel the tour, but again with some convincing, we bought the excursion on the ship... Although we paid double the price (compared to the deal that I found), the excursion was soooooooooo much fun!  We started off with a speed boat adventure from the cruise port over to the area where we would be doing the zipline.  Then took a jeep jungle tour up to the jungle.  Once we survived the off-road trek and major motion sickness, we arrived to our destination and met our tour guides and the adventure began!!!!  BEST PART OF THE TRIP BY FAR!! Enjoy the pictures!
