Why waterfall when there is no waterfall?

My trip to waterfall was unforgettable

It was Khmer new year, 2017 and my family arranged a family trip to Mondulkir province, a well-known place for Busra Waterfall, which is located in the north of Cambodia. It was what we call summer vacation here in Cambodia, which is naturally in dry season. The place was chosen because we had been to the beach many times already that we wanted to visit the site we never visited, somewhere green and fresh to be exact. It was nearly 1000 km drive from the city, and we expected it to be a very fun trip. Besides the waterfall, Mondulkiri also has its other particular places to visit and interesting things to do, not the mention the food local people are specialized in. Upon arrival, however, the trip turned out to be different.

Busra Waterfall

After checking in the hotel in the center of the province, we then went for lunch at one of the restaurant there. We were chit chatting about our plans and expecting to witness spectacular view in the forest with the flowing water from the hill. Our first agenda after lunch was going straight towards the waterfall, so we literally prepared everything for that. As we could drive directly to the waterfall, we finally had to hike there. It was a long walk to reach the waterfall under the scorching sun, but you know what happened after we reached there? There was very little water, the waterfall was almost dried out. We, then realized that because it was dry season and it usually dries out like this. We also realize that people are not recommended to visit the waterfall during the dry season if they wish to have waterfall shower.Though our expectation was not met, we still enjoyed the local food which was quite different from the city. We plan to go there one more time during rainy season so that we can enjoy our time to the fullest.
