a mid week jungle excursion.
>> April 30, 2019
To switch things up a bit we decided mid-week to start at the beach instead of the pool! Ha! Before the sand was just too hot to enjoy the kids played in the water, built sand castles and found new friends on the beach. We ended up hanging out with these friends the rest of the week and even exchanged contact info to have new pen pals!
Don't worry, we didn't forget about the pool though. After a few hours we went back for a quick swim, relaxed on the cozy couches and then fed the gigantic koi fish.
That afternoon we took the big kids on an ATV tour through the jungle. We told them months ago they could choose an adventure with us and after going through all their options they really wanted to ride in a muddy ATV. And we loved it! It was fun to see a new part of the island we've never been to and for Matt and I to try something new too.
The views were incredible. We stopped at 3 different locations to learn more about the history of the land and hear some of the famous movies that had been filmed in various areas. After a quick snack we headed to the final stop, a hidden waterfall! Since we had a little extra time they even let the kids swim and jump in for a bit. So so fun.
Simon loved his one on one time with Grandpa and Grandma too. He went fishing in the lagoon and caught 3 fish! A really fun day for all of us.
