Rapid Rivers

Yesterday, I went for the first time, rafting down some level 3 or 4 rapids. It was raining the whole time, but was so glorious. Even with the rain and the coldness against my skin I would look at the surrounding rocks, waterfalls, droplets against the water, and just think how beautiful it all was. I have never been rafting before and for the first time it was amazing. I was in the spanish group and learned very much the words ¨adelante, atras, atras izquierda, halt,...etc¨. No one in our group fell off but there were some close calls.

At one point we were able to jump off the raft and float down a more calm rapid, which I did and enjoyed greatly. But my body afterwards did not enjoy the coldenss of the air surrounding me. We continued on for about 12 km down the river and ended up in Chile. My first crossing to the country I shall be studying in! Only about two minutes later did we go back to Argentina to eat asado and such.

Today I am going on a horseback ride...however I do not know how much I will be able to do, because I did not sleep at all last night..I stayed out with friends at the discotec and than stayed up talking until about 7, so why sleep if I was supposed to be awake for horseback riding? No se, todavia que quiero descansar pero no puedo y todavia que quiero estar viajando con mas tranquilidad pero no puedo porque tengo ya reservas en lugares y los hostels. Espero que en el futuro yo puedo tener un viaje asi, caminando sin saber donde voy a estar el proxima dia o sin saber donde me voy a dormir. Pues, con amigos sera mejor, pero si lo necesito hacer sola lo voy a hacer. Dale, ahora si que necesito dormir porque esta blog es un kilombo y si puedes leer esa mal espanol, bueno pues...nos vemos manana y espero que no me voy a dormir sobre el caballo.
