Alquezar - Day 2

Day 2

On our second day in Alquezar, we hiked a sharp descent to the beautiful, Rio Vero.

The pinnacle of the 2 day trip was the waterfalls. The hike had been a little hairy at times -- slippery and steep. When we arrived at the waterfalls, we felt as if we had "arrived." Colin and Kelsey along with many of the SYA students quickly stripped down to their swimsuits and enjoyed the refreshing water and relaxing spirit.

When we returned to Zaragoza by the evening, the group seemed closer and more connected after our escape from the city to the postcard-perfect setting.
