Jaunted

What was it?  Blackwater rafting?

There aren't any rafts around... It just happens to be a big drop in the Rio Lindo. The caves themselves aren't too big, and water doesn't flow through them. But they're mighty nice after getting pummeled by the waterfall. The adventure, as I see it, is plunging in the pools and going underneath the full force of the falls. (I also was foolish enough to do it after two days of rain that saturated the river.)

The force of those falls must be incredible.

Though I was secretly hoping there was black water rafting in the caves.

Hi guys... Thanks for the video of the falls. My friend Jeni and I just got back (June 21, 2007) to Florida from sharing the love of God with kids at the orphanage home AHLE in San Francisco de Yojoa. Before coming home, we took one of the workers (Tutor Henry) to the falls. Wao!! We took the tour behind the falls and loved it! We were sharing how the waterfall represents Jesus in us....the top God's love--the source, and the bottom, the world. The falls never go backwards, only forwards. So thus the love of God...flowing constantly to others. Jesus the Messiah said "He who believes in me, out of his innermost being, will flow rivers of living waters" John 7:37. Jeni read your comment: My buddy claimed "that waterfall washed away my sins." and she told me how she wished someone would tell you about Jesus. He came for exactly that.. to wash away our sins. He is the Perfect Clean Water that washes us (the dirty water) and makes us Holy. In God's plan, Jesus came to die on the cross as payment of our wrong-doings. He is the prophesized Savior and as He said, whosoever believes in Him will not perish, but have Eternal Life... and from his/her innermost being will flow rivers of Living Waters!!
