Had a great ride with Julio today! He got the big boys rowing, laughing, and splashing! Great stuff! Second time for us; will try the more challenging sections next year.

My husband, myself, and our son and daughter-in-law embarked on the half day family rafting trip on July 8th. I have never rafted and had no real interest in going, but I ended up having a great time! Our guide, John, was so much fun and he did a great job giving us instructions and keeping us safe. The trip was probably a little too calm for the other members of my family, but it was perfect for me!
