The Creek Adventure


This morning before we ventured to the waterfall we walked through the countryside. First, when we got out of the car, we walked a short distance to another waterfall. To get to the waterfall you have to walk on top of a tall brick wall. The wall had no railings and it lead to a couple of stairs. The stairs went up of course and they too had no railings. When we reached the patio were we could see the waterfall we were about 30ft or 40ft in the air. It was extremely nerve racking for me because of the railings, that were not there. My legs were wobbling like Jell-O! If there were railings they were tall and you could easily slip through. When we were finished looking at the waterfall we crossed a small creek. After we went for a hot walk through the hills and saw many horses and goats grazing on grass. When we finished that walk we again went to cross a creek. The cold water felt good on our swollen feet. Apparently we were heading towards another waterfall in Verettes but we walked along the creek for a while and turned around. Although we ended up walking up a current which was hard and drenched us all; it was worth it. The water was cool and refreshing. After the whole adventure we hopped in the car and headed to the next waterfall! Today was fun seeing many waterfalls and I am glad to be relaxing now. Hope you are following along!
