We departed the jungle this morning and drove towards Banos. On the way we stopped at Rio Verde to view the magnificent Pailon Di Diablo (“Pot of the Devil”) waterfall. It was spectacular! After viewing it fromt he suspension bridge we climbed up the side of the mountain to view it from a different vantage point and then crawled in under some rocks, along the path, to stand behind it. This was fantastic, if not a little wet :-). The sheer volume of water passing over the rocks was amazing and the noise was deafening.
After lunch we had a short, fast, and slightly scary ride in a cable car across a gorge just outside Banos. The cable car was not quite what we imagine when we hear cable car... but it took us across the gorge to see another waterfall, Manto de Lanovia, and brought us back in one piece, so I guess it can’t have been too bad can it?!
