When I went to Lula Falls, I was amazed! It was so beautiful. It was so much fun. As soon as my toes touched the water the sudden relaxed look on my face turned into the biggest smile. People say water doesn't smell. Well, it does. Lula's water smelled so pure! My time this weekend was amazing and I hope to go there again soon. If I had my pictures to put up I would. You should really put some input into going. Everything is worth it....
