Today was an early start so I just grabbed a quick breakfast of cereal at the hostel before setting off.

At the meeting point I met my fellow travellers, from Colombia, Germany, Guatemala and America. We took a jeep ride over dirt roads for around 40 minutes and then hiked to a lovely place in the middle of nowhere that served up some delicious Colombian snacks along with a mixed sugar cane and coffee drink – very sweet.

The weather wasn’t great- the first time it’s rained since I’ve been here, but the views were still pretty amazing.

After snacks we trekked down to the waterfall, it was a bit slippery underfoot but we all made it ok.

The waterfall coming through the cave was amazing – to get a better view I jumped in and swam under the hole in the cave. The water was freezing so I didn’t stay in for long.

After a bit of time to dry off – I’d forgotten to take a towel – we then hiked back, stopping for more snacks on the way.

I had a pretty chilled afternoon in the hammock at the hostel, reading and chatting to some of the other guests.

I made a delicious prawn salad tonight – the pet cat ended up having a prawn too.

Tomorrow is another early start as the journey to Salento is via 3 different buses and will take at least 10 hours.
