Super Fly

Our friend Julie left college, went to Hawaii, fell in love, became a bird nerd and now Julie and Ray (the love) are becoming doctor Bird Nerds. So they spend their lives flying across the hemispheres bird nerding it up. Luckily for us, the bird she pines for flies to Ecuador so we got to catch her in the cloud forest of Mindo.

Checking out Toucan Sam

We decided that the best thing to do in a cloud forest was to dangle hundreds of feet from the ground. You have probably seen pictures before, or done it yourself. Basically, it is a suped-up ropes course. It was cool and fast, there were a lot of trees. But after a few lines it gets boring so we prefer to do tricks like this:

They call this the Mariposa, we thought it looked like something else.

Brianna how did that feel?

After that Mariposa we wanted to get down with the real thing, so we charged on over to Mariposas del Mindo. National Geographic what!?
