This one I am really excited to tell
you guys!! If you can't wait skip to the picture at the very end of the
post and look how handsome he is, and how beautiful the place is!
How do I
even start this day? We woke up somewhat early, or like really early, as we
have like a really early call-time at the pier. Going there, we were a little
regretful that we picked an earlier call time since we didn't have anything
planned in the afternoon anyway. Little did we know, our little early wake-up
will pay off BIG TIME.
One of the reasons I chose Puerto
Vallarta for our destination is because of this beautiful hidden beach. I've
seen it a few months back in imgur and I had instantly placed it in my
imaginary bucket list. I wasn't really feeling well the day of, since I've done
so much workout from yesterday's adventure. I was hungry and had very little
sleep. BUT EVERYTHING was fine when I saw him... I mean how can you not
be? anyway more beautiful views coming up.
On the way to Marietas Island, I
started feeling really sick. And then it got worse when we were on a lifeboat
sort of. kay, so from the big boat we were going in groups of ten at most to
get in a smaller boat that will actually take us to the hidden beach or rather
to the opening of the cave that will lead us to the hidden beach. AND as if it
was really meant to be, guess whose group we were in? haha it was really
surprising as we were already in the boat with different guide when all of a
sudden, somebody jumped in to the water and into our boat. Anyway, back to the
cave, the whole point of the story. KAY, so feeling a lot worse in the
lifeboat, like I was seriously about to throw up, but as soon as the boat moved
I was fine and got my priorities straight again. back on stalker mode. hehe I
thought it would be easy going in, because this time I actually read the
brochure and saw how low the water is inside the cave, but when we were there I
guess the tide was high and the opening of the cave is just tiny, they did warn
us about it and asked that only experience swimmers go to the hidden beach. I
barely know how to swim, and I have been in a lot of "buwis-buhay"
moments from yesterday anyway so what's another one? I was wearing a life
jacket anyway, I thought.
I Think there was 8 of us in the
group and we were told to stick together and stuff. Since it's a national park
we were only allowed 10 minutes inside the cave and the beach. The going in was
really tough, staying together was so hard. I even lost my friend in panic. I
almost hit the top of the cave but I was lucky enough that some guide or
whoever, (he wasn't wearing a uniform), pulled me in just in time. I struggled
so hard, I kept swimming but I wasn't going anywhere. Until I just gave up and
just rode the waves. and it worked. Remember told you that I was getting sick
and I was swooned by Kevin? yup, he was actually explaining how to swim going
in but I guess I just missed it? LESSON: LISTEN TO YOUR GUIDE!
Being inside the cave was so
surreal. I was so happy. It really did feel like an achievement. While inside
the cave, we did some pictorial, (to which I learned that I am fat), and then
it was time to go. All of the other groups were being called by their boat number
but for us, our group was called sexy beautiful Kevin’s group! because he is
and I think we are. hahaha
By this time, I knew how hard it is
to swim in that cave, so I listened to every word Kevin said. Like actually
listened to the words, and not just enjoy hearing him say it. Anyway it was
something like swim only when the wave is going out and then stop when it is
going in or something like that. Going out of the cave was surprisingly really
really easy. We were out in less than 5minutes. I was so proud of myself.
As soon as we got to the main boat,
my seasickness was back as well. There are still some activities that we can do
like paddle boating and snorkeling but I opted to just stay in the boat and be
a baby. I feel really sorry for my friend as I was really not in the mood. Not
even for pictures, not even for food, not even for opening my eyes. I have
never felt sea sick before, I have been on boats a lot of times and never did I
feel that! I have been proud of myself with that so when I was feeling this
sick I was so disappointed with myself. We stayed there for a few more minutes
till everyone was back in the boat and then we were headed back to the pier. As
soon as the boat was moving, I gained my color and I can breathe again.
Perfectly timed for the entertainment! One of the reasons I love Vallarta
Adventures is because there is no wasted time with them. Everything is about
entertainment. They work hard and make sure your money spent was worth it. It
was so fun watching the whole crew working while having fun as well. BOAT NO. 5
PEOPLE!
-till the next adventure!
PHOTO DUMP!!!
