Kubah National Park (Luke)

      On our first full day in Borneo we started off by visiting a waterfall. We were tired from Japan but, it was only a few miles. Unfortunately for us the walk to the trail head was harder. It was only about 600 meters long but, it was also about 600 meters uphill! My family slowly walked up while I ran up it. We got to the trail head about 25 minutes after we started. We got to the waterfall after a lizard jumped on my mom's neck. The waterfall was amazing. It was pretty big, about 25 feet high. The waterfall ran down to a little pool which Jacob, Maggie, and I played in. We found a rock and splashed water on it to make a little 2 foot slide leading into the water. We got out after my mom was done with pictures and we were tired of the pool. The hike back was refreshing and beautiful. We saw a leaf the size of Maggie and a lot of lizards and plants. I learned a new species of bee, called the "sweat bee". It is the only bee that does not sting and it is also attracted to sweat. Overall we had walked about 3 miles. By the time our hike ended the parents were a little exhausted.
