We had to go rather slow as many of the children are quite young, but we were able to make good time and arrive to the top just after noon. We took the...

The river was incredibly beautiful and the mountains and trees that surrounded the river were serene. We stopped a few times at the side of the river before we stopped for lunch. We had sandwiches and relaxed in the sun...
