Well, I just wanted to let everyone know I was alive after experiencing my first canopy tour. Let me just tell you, it was so much fun! I will have more pictures and maybe even some video later. Everyone on the group is combining pics and video and making a CD. So, I am waiting to see if there are better shots than what I took. But, I had to share this one with you. After the zipline we took a nature walk and also went through a Mariposario (butterfly garden). I have seen my share of these, but there were more Blue Morphos than I have ever seen! I kept trying to get a picture of one in flight, but they were too fast for me! However, two little guys decided to test out the sweat on my hands. They must have liked it because they were sucking away at my skin. It felt like a very tiny cat tongue (kinda scraping) and was awesome! I walked around with them on me, and when I tried to move them to a plant, they both jumped back on me! Finally after about 5 minutes, I moved them again and they stayed on the leaves. If it had been a blue morpho, I don't think I would have let it go! They are about the most beautiful butterfly God has created.
So anyway, I had a blast and arrived home safely. I had a sore throat Friday and Saturday, and we ended up walking through a downpour on saturday so now I have a cold as well. But it was more than worth it!
