Taiping National Forest

Last Saturday I went with a big group of my students to climb up a mountain alongside a stream with a bunch of waterfalls. The bus broke down twice one the way there,

but we eventually made it. There were pretty many people and only one path to walk, but it was nice to get away from the city for the day.

The path followed the stream the whole way up giving you great views of rapids and waterfalls.

At the top, there was a muddy pathway

up to an impressively high waterfall blowing in the wind.

qué grande!

On the way down, we stopped to rest on some of the rocks.

Some people got a little wetter than planned,

but fortunately no one fell through the bridge.

All in all it was quite a nice day.
