Savunamatelaya waterfall, Fiji


Soooo... as we have just a simply short Saturday... decided to go to the east, to look a bit around... AS we had no idea where to at all, we simply saw on the map... there should be somewhere a waterfall... ok... so... let's go and see it... haha...

The name is: Savunamatelaya Waterfall... Such an easy name, right? hahaha...

So, we just turned left, and let's see what's happening than...


First of all we had to stop at the first village, at the first hous where we saw a very-very small sign... This is the waterfall... ah... ok... so, we get out of the car... than a woman shows up... ask for some entry fee... ahhh.. ok...


and than our way start into the middle of the forest...


hmmm... looks beautiful... untouched...



and our first river to be crossed by foot... hahaha...
this lady was laughting at us, because we were sooooo surprised, that we have to cross the river... hahahaha...

so... than really cool, she informed us... you know, there is only one river to the waterfall, but you will have to cross this river 9-times before you arrive to the waterfall.... and she just laugh... hahahaha...

ahhhh... she was soooooooooo funny....


sometimes it was not a problem, as it was only 10-20cm deep... but sometimes 60-70cm... haha..



soooo, we just simply got wet everywhere... our trousers, our shoes... my skirt... hahaha...


but hey! this is really fun!


was very interesting, that we had to cross several different forest.. including a small bamboo forest! :)


and we had to cross thousands of this beasts!!!!! they were everywhere!
they were around 6-7cm long! and looks sooooooo discusting.... eoh...


Remi got bored about taking the shoes off and on... hahaha



again... shoes down.. cross the river... shoes again...



and finally we got to the waterfall... it was sooo beautiful and fresh!





after the waterfall visit we had to find quickly a place to stay, as it was almost dark... so... we ended up at the Mango Bay Resort... where we had some night entertainment... hahaha...



and we were looking around..




and this was our safari tent to sleep in... haha... was really fun... as the bathroom was half open air bathroom... you could watch the stars while taking a shower... hahaha...

So... was a quit interesting Saturday! :)
