We left q
uite early to go to the Big Falls. This time to get there we had to walk down a valley of loads of rice terraces for about an hour. Obviously most of us (apart from my mum) have some mountain goat in us as we were able to race down the paths to Big Falls.
When we got there I thought in my head, “wow, that must be 80 times bigger than small falls!”. We took a quick dip in Big Falls but it was far too cold to stay in long. Manong Madrid though thought it was warm and rinsed himself in the waterfall to get wet and then washed his h
air with shampoo which he had bought along the way!! He scrubbed it on his head and then jumped in to get a good rinse! What a great way to have a shower! There were some boys who had followed us and were good friends of Manong Madrid. One of them showed my Dad how to climb up the falls so he could jump off too. The boys scrubbed Manong Madrid’s back with a stone to make him clean and then gave him a massage. We had a great time but really didn’t look forward to the long trip back. Mr Bang gave us some goodies for the trip back to Manila. 
The trip back was VERY long and bumpy. We stopped overnight in Baguio which is the main town in the mountains. On Saturday we got up early and drove back to Manila.
