So I got Josie sick and she's almost dying. I decided to hike to the Juara waterfall by myself. I read in my guidebook that there was a 7-eleven on the way and only one road that leads to Juara so what do I do, I figured I didn't need it and I left my guidebook back at the chalet. Stupid!
I got up at 5:30 and walked 25 minutes from from ABC to Tekek. From Tekek, its 2 hours to Juara, which has a scenic beach, and only 1 hour to the waterfall. I figured I could get to the waterfall and back before 9:00. I saw one road leading toward the eastern part of the island, but I saw another road about a quarter mile (400m) further down, then another one. I took the biggest road and walked about 10
minutes only to find an enclosed construction site. Also, I didn't see a 7- eleven.
By now, the sun was coming up and I though it would get hot, so I decided to give up and go back to ABC.
When I got back, I looked at my guidebook and saw that if I walked about 10 minutes further down the big road, I would have found the 7-eleven and THAT'S where I should have turned east. Oh well ... Next time.
