How much I wanted to step into the clear water of the pond and watch up-close the clear, diamond-like drops of water falling from a height of 50 meters.
The waterfall resembled a mysterious and tall statue that emerged from the heart of the mountain like a wandering spirit and had been long white roots, with a sparkly body full of violence and love, it had sprung from the water and poured into the water as well.
I finally made my decision and took off my shoes and socks and stepped into the endless water to get as close to the waterfall as possible. I was afraid I would not get another chance like this, and even though the weather was very cold and my legs were numb, I didn’t hesitate, so I wouldn’t have any regrets.
We did not stay by the waterfall for long because it was cold and we had to leave as soon as possible. We found a place in the forest for lunch. We lit a fire and warmed ourselves next to it. I was very cold even though I had changed my clothes. I said to myself: Maybe I should not have gone into the water ... but then I thought ... there should be no regrets.
We had a good lunch with our fellow travelers and less than an hour passed and we continued on our way again. We were about to get lost in the forest again and again. The mysterious jungle seemed to play with our minds.
It was getting dark and we had just reached the river, which was our way back. An hour before sunset, we were speeding along the river.
It was late at night ... and for the first time in my life, this would happen for me, spending the night in an unknown land where I would hear the sound of the river and the leaves of tall trees hitting my face... I was scared and it was horror pushing my tired legs forward.
My companion took out his cell phone and turned on the flashlight so we could see the route until the phone died. Then it was my turn to use my phone. Fortunately, I did not use my phone to listen to music during the trip, and the phone was fully charged.
I was waiting endlessly to hear some noise to be a sign of us getting close to a rural land when suddenly I heard the barking of the dogs, the same dogs who barked at us in the morning angrily!... the sound of dogs that were always disturbing, now was like a pleasant and sweet celestial voice as a sign of reaching the village … and a little further the cars were parked...
It was a crazy day ... We had explored the forested mountains for 12 hours. We had walked for 10 hours and at night … we were finally saved.
The End.
