It was a great day out in nature!
While walking out of the Pinnacles after Xmas, I saw a row of diving suits hanging in the wind. I thought they were for cave rafting. The staffs passed me a brochure and invite me to come. Here I am, with my wife.
We are in our mid 50s. My wife has not done any river tracing or abseiling before, same as the other lady in the group. Thanks for Sara, the instructor. The new thing I learned is that the way of swimming/floating is different while wearing the diving suit. Without her guild, we won’t be able to enjoy such tranquil beauty deeply hidden in the canyon.
No man ever steps in the same river twice. However, I know that they are always there: the fallen trunk under the waterfall that I stood and the crystal pools that I jumped as if I were a kid. I step in the river forever.
