Ensenada Mexico

Nov. 2, 2011- Day #3 of our cruise put us in Ensenada Mexico. Here is Joey, Max, & Carly standing in front of our ship, Paradise on our way into Mexico!

We walked down the pier to catch a taxi to La Bufadora. From past cruising experience we have learned that you can often get the same excursions for less if you pay the locals directly.

Riding in the taxi van to La Bufadora


We saw these cool clouds that seemed to be pouring over the mountain.


Max & Gus peering over the edge waiting for the blast of water.

La Bufadora is a natural geyser like formation that is only found in three places in the world. One here in Mexico, one in Hawaii, and one in Australia. The water from the tide is pushed into the hole in the rock and then the pressure builds up inside the cavern and pushes the water up into the air. It's pretty cool to watch. We sat here for over an hour and eventually made our way over to the wet zone and Max, Carly, and Joey were giggling as they got sprayed by the water!



Max looks a little nervous to be having his picture taken while sitting on the edge


Gus didn't want to get sprayed so he stayed safely out of the way!


This is a video of Max and Carly being sprayed by the blow hole. They got soaked but loved every minute of it!
