Or maybe this snake slithering around right by our portion of the creek?
Nope! Those things are not dangerous at all! The REAL perils of the trip are these - a backpack, peanut butter and jelly, sand and pretty waterfalls!
Heavy packs loaded with too much PB&J caused hip injuries such as this one (my injury wasn't quite so visible, so here is Aimee's):
The really deep sand kept getting into my shoe as I shuffled along the trail. I knew I was getting a blister as the sand got caught in my sock and kept rubbing against the side of my heel. But I had no idea I was going to get TWO blisters, one large, one small - right on top of each other. Ouch! Frickin' sand!
And aren't these little tiny waterfalls pretty? Cute as a button? Don't be fooled. DANGER AHEAD!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguE4KAouJPmaHeH-5WImkUDBJwOeGqLQxMLIsqBoVZHVYq_4SvLQzJBoGNqotA-BCQbG_HKhf4ACe5AaGwTaAEa3egUN2tu4sdE6lS3FiEIyH436dunxEy-wM3utNFVHcsyER-/s400/P1020449.JPG)
If you slip while crossing (which these 3 girls did), you will end up with a scraped and bruised left knee!

I also fell while crossing the falls, but I injured my right calf, so I didn't get to be in the picture. My fall was pretty spectacular though. One false step and I went plunging chin-high into the water, submerging my camera. I got out quickly enough that the water didn't penetrate the case though! I was a little shaken up from the fall and on my next step, fell in again! :) Waterfalls are dangerous, I'm telling you!!
