Yesterday we began the day with a lecture from Siggy. After we all piled into the vans to go to a different segment of the rainforest, called Mamu. It is an informational educational park of sorts. There is a canopy walk there that we went on. It is a raised platform that is high enough up to put you in the lower canopy level. It was pretty cool there. Some people got to see Cassowary. I sadly didn’t.

We went to another section of rainforest after that to hike to a waterfall. It was about a 4k hike to the big falls. It was a really pretty hike, I saw a golden orb spider along the way, and a whole bunch of other cool things that I don’t know the names for. When we got to the big falls we all went swimming. It was awesome. The falls were really heavy but some of us climbed up the rocks behind them anyway. It wasn’t as bad as it would be in the wet season. It was so much fun to sit in and behind the falls. It hurt a bit when the water was hitting you but it wasn’t really that painful. Whenever the falls shifted a bit we were out of the direct stream and could see better. I got some neat pictures underneath the falls and behind it. And the best part…all of this counted as class time.
