Jamaica 2013: Dunn's River Falls

One morning, we took a cab ride to visit Dunn's River Falls. We knew we wouldn't be able to actually climb up the falls with the kids but we still wanted to check it out! We had a great cab driver who led us all the way into the park and to the bottom of the falls. He then returned for us a couple of hours later! It was a fabulous service! 
The kids and I at the bottom of the falls.


The warnings and rules!
Playing at the bottom of the falls.
Getting closer!
Scott was there too!
The water rushing down the falls was fresh water; and you can see the salty sea water in the background!
So beautiful!

I wanted him to stand with the water falling on him, but this was as close as he got.
Logan made a friend to play with.
Starting our climb!
You can see here, a person climbing up the falls. This was a very steep portion.

Scott and Jacob watching the water.
Looking back at the ocean.
Letting the boys step into the water part way up the climb.
There were A LOT of stairs!
People making their way up.
We stopped for a drink and to let Norah out of the hot carrier!
Refreshing frozen fruit punch.
Checking out his drink.
Beer for the grown ups!
Happy girl!

Family shot!

I took quite a few pictures on the way up of the water and trees... 





Hi!
A tree...with lots of roots!



Even though she's still little...it was hard work carrying her up those stairs!

We made it!
