A retreat in Puerto Rico

Our focus on this retreat was rest and pushing ourselves outside our comfort zones. We spent lots of time at the pool, resting, and had an epic hike that led to a lot of growth.

The hike took us up boulders and ravines. We used ropes to climb rocks and kept going until we hit a beautiful natural pool fed by a waterfall. This hike took us and our children way past the levels we have for group physical activity. Yet our children perceived and it showed us just how mentally and physically strong they are.

It also was an experiment in letting our children lead the way and to not hold them back because of our own fears.
