As the groups made their way through the beautiful forest, there was an intermittent light drizzle that kept the air cool and crisp. While walking along the jungle path, the naturalists pointed out a variety of plants and flowers that were in full bloom. They even saw different types of butterflies, spiders, fungi, land crabs and tiny frogs jumping around.

After about an hour, the group reached a beautiful babbling stream at the end of the trail where they stopped and soaked in the beautiful sight and sounds of water flowing for 20 minutes. The parents rested on the rocks on the bank while the kids were skimming stones and dipping their feet in the cool, refreshing water.

After taking a group picture, the participants made their way back from where they dispersed at about 10:30 am. After spending a lovely morning in the lap of nature, they were reluctant to leave the Park and promised that they would be back soon.
