Everything had been perfect, tanning by day and hitting the bars and clubs by night, I hadn’t enjoyed myself so much in years, staying out until 6am... Drinking and dancing. The hotel we were allocated is also a pleasant surprise, decent sized rooms with a large bath and separate shower and a large balcony. It had been pristine when we first got here, but two lads on holiday soon change that. The room looks a bit of a tip now.Yes, this is the life. I could quite easily become accustomed to it.. Since he'd left his clothes here when he left he was still naked. He told us about it while he dressed.It is maybe half a mile to the canyon's entrance. The stream is not much and isn't deep at all.
