Zip-Lining!

On Friday, I went to a town called Piriapolis. We went there because some friends told us about this park that has a huge zip lining course that's actually the longest in South America. We got to piriapolis, which is a really pretty beach town, at 11:30. We went to the tourism office and were told that the place was only about 10 blocks away, or at least thats what we thought. We walked about 2 km and then stopped for lunch then walked about another one until we were able to find a lady that told us we were about 3 km from the place we were looking for. We hadn't seen any taxis or buses so we decided to keep walking. We finally got to the mountain the zip line was on, but then found out that it was on the other side of the mountain. We were so tired of walking, so we decided to call a taxi. We finally found the place at 4 p.m. and then went zip lining. It was really fun and we drove up there with the workers in the back of a jeep which was also really fun. The zip line was about 800 meters long and I was going so fast that my eyes were watering by the time I finished. It was really fun, and the view was amazing! We got a ride back into town and took the bus home. It was an incredible trip, and the thing I like most about going on trips like these is bonding with the friends that I go with. It's kind of like we're a team, and there's few things I like more than the camaraderie that a team brings. We had to work together and go through all of that ridiculousness together, and it definitely brought us closer together.
