Five Sisters Falls



On Day 2, we took a trip to a resort near Pine Ridge Lodge. At the resort, we hiked down to a group of waterfalls called the Five Sisters. The name Five Sisters comes from the fact that there are five small waterfalls clustered together.   It was so nice. Around the water, there were hammocks and small huts to rest in. We swam in the small pools under the falls and Juan gave us permission to start climbing the waterfalls. After we all climbed up, some of us "chilled" at the top. It was a little hard to get up because the current was so strong. But after seeing Miss Little take a leap of faith into the water, we all wanted to join in the fun. Our group jumped off the falls one by one. We could also swim in two separate pools of water (a lower and an upper). It was really cool to sit under the waterfall and see the water rush over our heads while we could still breathe. We all enjoyed our refreshing swim after hiking that day. It was an amazing experience.
