December 29, 2008 Entry #7 - "Waterfalls" --------------------------------------- [color=blue]Dear Diary,[/color] [spoiler]8am, as planned. Me and some of my friends in the same school planned on a visit to 'the house of lola' which our friend, lelit said that she lives in the mountain areas of kiwalan and if we like, we will visit her. She told us to expect a few mountain trekking and passing the river areas and seeing diodiongan falls. Everything sounded great but we we're not expecting what's in store for us. We walked through a river raging with water without life vests or ropes. Then followed the riverside filled with huge boulders covered with moss and leeches. Then right after the river, we passed under a small falls holding only to very small roots and passing it with a piece of land enough for your feet to fit in. There we were able to see the majestic diodiongan falls and rested for a couple of hours and started going through the mountain top and making a land slided area as our road. Climbing through the muddy and uprooted land which is 80-90 degrees. Small rocks hit our heads as some of my friends climb up the top without even ropes or pickaxes to hold on to something. We climb it barehanded, singking our hands to the muddy land if there is nothing to hold on. When we reached the top, we hiked for 2 hours and there stood the house of lola, who let us in and gave us a lot of buko. Then we went home, bruised and exhausted, riding a motorcycle this time. It was the most weird and worst, yet memorable outing i've been in to. Good thing lelit make up to us by letting us eat in their home with lots of various grilled food.[/spoiler] [color=blue]No more hiking for me[/color] [img]http://i37.tinypic.com/sol4c8.jpg[/img]
