Today I was blessed with the experience to walk through this amazing waterfall. It is an experience that is very hard to recapture in words, but I will do my best.
I went with 15 other International School teachers. Once we told the guide that we were going through the waterfall, he lead us down a jungly path through trees and over rocks. Then we started to see the waterfall up close. It is a very powerful waterfall and from about 100 feet any we beginning getting misted because of the great force of all the water. When getting closer to the water, it is like being in a hard rain. At this point we had to jump into a pool and swim to reach the base of the waterfall. Once close to the falls, it is like a storm of water being whipped around. The guide sticks his hand out to you and you following him while holding on to the next person's hand. The chain of people walk through as water cascades all around. It is almost impossible to see and fairly hard to breathe. Under the waterfall we were standing in waist deep water and trusting that the person leading us would not let go! It was a little scary and amazing beautiful. It remained me that God has power beyond my wildest imagination.
