Kota Tinggi Waterfalls

We had 14 colleagues converge on us last night for a night of good food, too much talking, and far too late a night. I did skulk off at about 1:30 and heard the bunch still carrying on until nearing daylight.  Then we all gathered in the silly string of Protons (our cars) and headed to the waterfalls nearby.  A beautiful setting and the trip felt much like the roads on Vancouver Island,. Deep in a rainforest we were pleasantly enveloped in steamy heat and the slight roar of the falls.  We managed to capture a cobra eating a smaller snake, so hopefully I will get that uploaded in the next few days.  Now home again, I am going to try to sneak away for a nap because this moving around in a clump is very tiring.  Here is a picture of the falls near the top. There are red flags to alert patrons to get out or be prepared for flash floods spewing into the falls, which seem to happen frequently.  Spotters are stationed higher and further back of the falls to monitor the downpours that affect the water flow.
