Ok - well that was last year at this time when I tried to make it up to Bassin Bleu... today it was 3 Haitians, 4 Canadians and a mule... As promised, Cyril got me to Bassin Bleu and back in one piece today! It was a bit weird being where I fell a year ago...I must admit, I was a bit teary eyed...I realized today, that it was a straight drop down and not a slope that I fell down last year...I also understand why I was broken! Cyril was great - just in case I hadn't said that before...
So we reinacted the fall, I layed on the ground where I had fallen... then when I got up - the guy who was there last year with his mule whcih became my A-MULE-ANCE was there... what are the chances that he would be there at the EXACT time we were there...I still believe that the Vodoo gods had something to do with it.
We made it to Bassin Bleu, despite my heart rate being elevated and my anxiety level being elevated.
But I must say it was worth every moment of stress, anxiety and tears. Bassin Bleu is this amazing blue lake which is fed by waterfalls - the water was refreshing and it was a peaceful environment.
We then went to La Florita for late afternoon dinner and for a walk through The Iron Market. Time for a nap now - then dancing Kompa later...
I heart Jacmel!!!
Bon Bagay!
