Like my first day off, my last day off included a hike to Bowen Falls. This one was better because it was a perfectly sunny day. Check out my photos!!!
Can you find Rowan in this picture?
In my other blog post, I didn't get any pictures of the Bowen River so here is one now! You have to hike along the river over these large boulders for part of the way. Rowan has a triumphant pose and Shelly is wishing she had longer legs to help negotiate all the rocks.
This day was sunny and dry so when we got to the top of the falls, it wasn't slippery like it was the last time so I felt safe enough to stand up and have Rowan take his photo of me. The gaters make my legs look shorter!
Rowan and Shelly enjoying the view.
It is difficult to figure out where to position yourself in this picture without blocking something beautiful!
Since it wasn't slippery, I was able to get closer to the falls so I could get a view of the bottom.
What I didn't know the first time I reached the top of the falls was that there is a secret trail that goes up, around, down and then leads to a cave. From the cave, you can get a better view of the falling water with the fiord in the background.
The hike to the cave is very steep and treacherous, but it is well worth it.
That's all for now. I hope all is well :)

Gorgeous. Are the falls pretty loud? Can you describe the sound?
I bet you feel like you have to go to the bathroom a lot! :) That hike looks challenging but so beautiful!!
The waterfall sound is kind of like what it sounds like when you were a fetus inside your mum's tummy and her heart was beating, but instead of many rhythmic beats, it is just one perpetual beat.
Andrea, I have to go to the bathroom right now. How did you know?!?
