Chapter 485 Lunch Amidst The Wild Forest, And Fighting Against Nature
Somewhere amidst the Kaokoa National Park, a group of people was camping near a huge waterfall.
The waterfall had a height of at least 30 meters, and the water force was so big that the visitors were not able to take a shower beneath the waterfall.
Nevertheless, it was still a great place for the group to camp and have their lunch.
This was the third waterfall that Theo and the others visited since they left the lake. And this time they decided that instead of swimming, they would camp and have lunch as it was already over noon.
After Lara and the other guides secured the place, Nanth and the hotel employees that came with the excursion group started working on providing a comfortable way for their guests to have lunch.
They started by assembling tables and chairs for everyone to seat at. Afterward, they lit up a bonfire to warm the place as the forest weather was a little chilly, especially for Theo and the others who had taken a swim in the cold river.
After everyone was comfortably seated, they started preparing the lunch.
They had brought precooked meals, so they just had to heat them up on the portable cookstoves they had brought.
Shortly after, everyone was able to smell the delicious smell of the food coming from the pots.
While Nanth and the staff cooked the lunch, Theo and the others talked with Lara and the guides about the rest of their tour.
"Lara, where are we going afterward?" Lauren asked.
The others also looked at Lara curiously as they also wanted to know where they were going next.
"We'll cross the river and travel on another trail to catch up with another stream as the next waterfalls we will visit are placed on another stream. On the way to the other stream, we will pass through a valley filled with exotic vegetation that is perfect for pictures. We will stop there for a while before heading to the final two waterfalls of the tour." Lara explained lightly.
The others nodded in understanding when they heard that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Is this valley the one with the red and purple vegetation?" Sama asked.
"Yes." Lara smiled.
"Oh, I heard about this valley!"
"I saw pictures of it in the hotel's pamphlet."
"I can't wait to arrive there!"
Just like that, everyone was hyped up for the rest of the excursion, but before that, they had to fill up their stomachs and it didn't take long for Nanth to come with the lunch ready.
After the long morning everyone had, they were super hungry, so everyone started eating immediately afterward.
The hotel staff, the guides, and the visitors had a pleasant lunch that Sunday in the middle of the wild forest.
Imagine eating delicious dishes in front of a beautiful waterfall surrounded by towering trees.
That's what they faced at that moment, and they couldn't be happier as this adventure was proving to be everything they were expecting so far.
They laughed and talked as they leisurely had their lunch with the guides and the staff.
Theo and the others didn't feel superior to them because they were hiring their service. They felt only admiration for them as very few people would be brave enough to work in this way of work.
Working in a hotel is difficult as they had to deal with different tastes and personalities from guest to guest. While working as a guide in the park was even more precarious. The risk of death was real every time they entered the forest, and they made their lives doing that!
So, Theo and the others asked a bunch of questions to them as they had their lunch.
Their attitude surprised the staff and the guides, as they were used to dealing with arrogant rich people, but Theo and the others didn't act like it.
They were fun, approachable, and kind to everyone.
Even Nanth was surprised, as he was the concierge responsible for the most exclusive suits of the hotel, he was used to dealing with extremely arrogant rich people.
All of that, made everyone feel much more satisfied in working for them.
Once again, Theo and others made friends with the staff and guides, just like they did with Matue and the instructors when they dove into the sea.
It was amidst this great mood that they had a wonderful lunch and the time to leave for the next stop arrived.
The staff kept everything that was used in the lunch and kept the portable chairs, tables, and other things back in the cars.
When they cleaned all the traces that they had been there, they all went back into the cars.
Shortly after, the offroad vehicles drove upstream until they arrived at a part of the stream that had a low dept.
As this was a wild forest, there was no bridge where they could cross the river, so the vehicles had to cross the river by entering the stream.
That's why only licensed guides driving offroad vehicles could this maneuver as the risk of amateur drivers losing the car's control during the crossing was too big.
Everyone was a little nervous when they saw that time for them to enter the river had arrived.
They had never entered a river while riding a car before, which made them nervous, but at the same time, they felt a little excited.
It seemed so radical!
"Is everyone ready?" Lara asked as she stopped the jeep just a few meters away from the river.
"I don't know."
"Come on, let's go!"
"Can we not go?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLara laughed when she heard their controversial answers, but before they could register what was happening, they felt the car moving!
They had entered the river!
One by one, the offroad vehicles faces the stream power as they strove to cross the river to the other side of the shore.
The offroad vehicles had a high horsepower, but even then everyone was able to feel the stream power trying to drag the jeep down the stream.
"Oh, my god!"
"UHULL!"
"We're gonna die! We're gonna die!"
"Am I in heaven?"
"..."
Everyone had different reactions as they crossed the river.
There were a few of them that even started taking pictures of the whole ordeal.
Slowly by steady the offroad vehicles fought the stream's power until one by one arrive on the other shore.
The jeep's engines roared loudly as they arrived on land once again!
At that moment, everyone commemorated their successful river crossing.
"We did it!"
"That was amazing!"
"My heart is beating so loudly!"
At that moment they felt more alive than ever.
The feeling of fighting against nature's power was so thrilling!
