I'm a little ashamed to say this but just recently Chris and I finally checked out some waterfalls that we live by. Chris's sister, Adrienne is visiting us and we took the opportunity to see what the waterfalls were all about. The one we went to is called, well, I forgot the Chinese name already but it's translated as the "Seven Falls". We had heard that there were waterfalls nearby but we assumed that it was maybe a small waterfall and not really worth seeing. We were pleasantly surprised to find that it's actually quite nice and a good hike to get to the top of the falls. It's steep so there are a lot of ropes that are attached to trees that are there so you can climb up and sorta rappel down.
There are several pools that you can jump into from some boulders so that was really fun too. Unfortunately, it hadn't rained in a while so there was only one that was deep enough at the time.

Overall, the whole hike took less than an hour and that was because we were stopping along the way as well. So not a long hike, just steep. It was overall a good break from surfing and the scenery was beautiful.

This is a spider we saw on our way down. You can't tell but it was huge! About the size of my open hand. |
