Today we decided it would be fun to fling ourselves down some waterfalls, kinda like being flushed down a jacks wearing a wet-suit.
 I feel slightly traumatized by the whole ordeal. according to the photos they show you of it, you are gently cascading down a waterfall with a big smile on your face but the reality is somewhat different, they neglect to tell you that the rocks are quite slippy with the waterfall being wet and all, and that you will be bashed against these rocks several times as you go down all five waterfalls and go blind from all the water! Oh, and once you go down the first waterfall there is no way back up so even when you are paralyzed with fear you still have to face getting down the other 4 waterfalls that are up to 30mtrs in height.

Niall couldnīt understand what all the fuss was about

Good day overall. Turns out we finished up near where we let our chicks out the previous day. Soaking in the hot spring baths made everything seem OK.
