Agua Azul is a long series of glittering cascades coursing over kilometers of lush valleys in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas Mountains. The powerful, shimmering falls, white water and deep, clear pools, rush through steaming jungle about 50km from the town of Palenque. With sparkling turquoise water set against a deep green jungle background, the falls are probably one of the most spectacular natural attractions in Mexico. They are beautiful to look at. These two Chiapas Indian girls love to swim into these falls.

MICHAEL KENT'S (here on flickr, under The Big Jiggety) words, from his book Tadpoles Will Become Frogs
"At the pool the world turned into a Seurat painting, where creatures were but little slabs of monochrome paint."
"....nothing mattered anymore. I was in the water; O essence of purification, rebaptized, and no gravity to pull me down. I was an amoeba, I was a fish, I was a bird; better yet, I was a tadpole, moving my legs like one long black tail. Swish, swish. I passed a few, a few passed me, The first few notes of Saint-Saen's Organ Symphony spun around in my head..."
