never in my life have i imagined such a place
Class III and IV rapids.
I have done more extreme rapids before but not so many in the same trip- they just came and came- 4.5 hours of nonstop thrills- especially in our boat- which had 5 people and 6 captains- all shouting contradicting instructions- it's amazing we managed to go forward at all.
Water camera photos will arrive this week
This was kind of a tyul shnati - about 20 boats together- a few both flipped - few fell overboard - but all came out (from the river) .
So later we went back to our extreme camping camp- for grilled corn and other good stuff.
Next morning we went to another sliding rock river - we walked up the river- and it was full of tiny water falls (nachal arugot sizes), and pools- and I had a flash back of a movie scene- where the sentence in the subject was said (2 points to the one who remembers that one)- don't cheat- I am monitoring Google and live MSN search.
There were 3 butterflies there- with the great beitar colors (damn netania) - who were very close to each other and I have a great photo - see attached
After that we glitched in the river and stopped in the "big" water fall- about 1 meter high and sat in it letting the water message us- very refreshing- till the water "borowed" Alla's glasses- so it took me ½ hour of diving with no luck till a guy found them in 5 minutes) so happy end- for them as well- got a thank you beer ( I stuck to my diet Pepsi).
The important part of the weekend was on the drive back- I was happily surprised to pass through the tiny town of Springfield Pennsylvania(my 3rd)- where they had a big cemetery and next to it a house with a volleyball court- see photo- which was just weird to see- nothing special, just weird.
