First stop: ziplining 
Ethan got to go all by himself. We all went twice on the shorter line and once on the longer line over the lagoon
Nolan and Daddy went together
Lydia went with me
We were in the middle of the jungle. 
We saw a turtle on our canoe ride back to land
The first cenote (sinkhole with exposed rocky edges) of the day. James and the
boys jumped off the cliff into the water
There goes James
Ethan swimming in the cenote
Nolan ended up needing James to drop him in the water because he couldn't get himself to jump
The guys and our guide, Gil. Lydia and I were standing on the cliff because she insisted that
she wanted to jump too....she didn't!
Dos Ojos - the underground river cenote with amazing stalactite and stalagmite formations in beautiful torquoise
water. All of the kids' first time snorkeling and they did great!
Nolan andLydia in their float suits
Gil was so helpful with the kids!
NoJo ready to go
Ethan too
Lydia got an extra float and she loved just looking around above the water

Going through the narrow area to get to the "Bat Cave" I kind of freaked out when I saw the sign, but Gil said, "oh, it's just the name." Liar! There were bats flying all over, but, after the initial shock, I was surprisingly okay with it. James told Nolan that it was where Batman used to live, so he thought it was super cool!

This was our view from the restaurant we ate at on the beach
The restaurant had swings at the bar
We sat under the palapa on the left

The lagoon we snorkeled in. We could tell our guide was disappointed in how cloudy the water was on that particular
day. We saw quite a few fish, but Gil said that it's
