With Glee: Waterfalls at Peace Lodge


Forget Muggle pictures--Look at what I learned about photography at Hogwarts! 😂


Peace Lodge has over 2 miles of trails through the rain forest and most of them follow the waterfalls.  They weren't the type you could swim in romantically with mermaids (Pax probably likes to keep it's fatalities low for PR purposes), but they were beautiful and lush...and very popular in the middle of the day. Which is why I ran down the paths one more time after the day visitors left.  


Why was it just me, you may ask?  Here's a hint.  The pic on the left shows us early into the trails.  The left one shows us a little further in.















Piper sometimes breaks hard.  And occasionally this kid doesn't make sense.  The child who climbs trees, goes on any ride (the scarier, the more quickly she runs back in line), happily ziplined across the tree canopy...is scared of bridges and waterfalls??  Or is it just an excuse to justify crankiness? 

Before we ended up skipping some of the viewpoints just to get Piper off the trail, we had some fun frolicking.



Kids totally made it almost 3 minutes before getting shoes wet!  Not really a problem, though, when it's 80∘.  
We came across this buzzard by the pools.


Regardless of Piper Drama, I enjoyed my late afternoon solo run much more. I got a shot of all three falls at once.
