Welcome 2009!

First day of 2009 and everything was set up for rafting.
We woke up a little bit latter than usual, because of New Year's party, where we had our champagne confiscated by cops! :P At 12:30pm we left the backpacker to the place where we were going to do the rafting.
The boats had 7 people each, so we were separated in teams to go down the river. This rafting was composed of three water falls. The first one is 1 meter high, the second is 3 meters high and the last one has 7 meters (they say it's the highest fall in commercial rafting in the world - as I have already written somewhere, they like advertising).
Well, at first we received all the instructions how it was going to work, some rules, what to do in some cases and how to work (paddle forward, paddle back forward, go down, one hand etc). I liked to do all the rafting, but honestly, I was expecting more. After each water fall te boat stopped to more instructions, so it was not fast. Anyway, it was nice!
When we moved back, Robert (our guide, from Poland) drove us to the supermarket and to Burger King (the diet is going very well) to eat a little bit.
After 'lunch', if we can call that lunch, Robert took us to walk in the park in front of our accommodation. I had already walked around the park, but Robert always has the explanation for many things, so it was even better going there with him!
Some guys from Chile wanted to go to the Polynesian Spa once again, so I took the chance and came back there, to pretend I'm rich and relax!
So, in the first day of 2009 I could have some adventure, some walking and a relaxing time in the Spa. Let's see what's comming up next!
