Sumidero Canyon (Mexico)

On the last day of our trip to San Cristobal de las Casas we made a visit to Chiapa de Corzo to do a boat ride through the Sumidero Canyon.

all boarded and ready to go

Our trip started around noon.  It got up to 102 degrees that day! The boats are not covered so we were in the direct sun.  It was hot! Hats and sunscreen came in handy. As you can see from this photo, bandanas came in handy too.

The boat ride was fun and relaxing.
 

I loved seeing the cactus growing on the sides of the cliffs.


I thought this looked like a face.

So beautiful and peaceful!
 
 


We got to see monkeys.
 
 



 



During rainy season this would be a waterfall.
 

 
It was another great outing with this fun, adventurous family!

 
 
We also saw a crocodile.
 

After leaving we drove on into Tuxtla and stopped for a late lunch at Chili's.  We then enjoyed some DQ Blizzards. It was a perfect treat on that hot day.

From there we headed on to the airport to catch our evening flight back to Guatemala. I cannot think of a better way to end our time with the Richardson family.  They were excellent hosts and did a fantastic job of showing us around their area.
