After multiple rain delays, we flew out of Annai around 2:00 in 2 small planes. Destination: Kaieteur Falls. Words cannot describe our initial view of the falls, nor the following views as we landed safely at Kaieteur. We were soaked through immediately on our way to our first stop along the falls. The fog and the rain did not conceal the grandeur of this 750ft waterfall. Our first view allowed us to see the falls in its entirety. We made our way lower down on the 2 billion year-old rock to catch a glimpse lower down. The rain cleared for our last stop by the waterfall, leaving a beautiful rainbow behind. We laid on our stomachs and looked down to see every drop of the largest single-drop waterfall in the world. Though our visit was brief, most of us agreed that this was the most beautiful sight we have ever seen and may get to see in our lifetime. Our pilots flew us safely through the rain and we landed in Georgetown where Roop took us back to his house for our last couple days of the trip.
