Hellooooo
I'm finally back in Bangkok after a long week! I'm seriously missing Koh Tao, not being able to walk on the beach to chill out or have a swim in the perfect blue sea is very upsetting lol i'm trying to get by thou.
My white water rafting day was amazing!! It was an early start, 8 am we all met. We then drove up to the highest point in Pai for a pciture but it was misty!! So you cudnt see anything, bit gutting. It was a long drive to get there, nearly 3 hours. We were in the back of a truck too so my back and arse were killing me big time. Anyway we finally made it and got kitted out with our gear. Then at last we got on the river. It was beautiful. We paddled through the moutains and it was seriously breath taking. I cudn't believe what i was seeing, it was like out of a film. I saw 2 king fishers up close (jealous dad ;) lol) and a massive big lizard relxing on a floating log. It was very cool.
The rapids were amazing, it was hardcore. I thought a few times the boat was gunna tip over. Our guides were great, they knew every inch of the river so we were in safe hands. It was still scarey though, the rapids were big and i fell in to the boat (rather than out of it lol) a few times. We stopped for lunch before carrrying on to a place where you vould jump into the river. They call it cliff jumping. Seriously, this rock was so high, you basically jump off into the river and let the current float you down.I was sure i wasn't gunna do it.But i was brave and did a massive 9 meter high jump into the river. Wow!!! After we floated down the river in our lifejackets before swimming though the currents. All in all we were paddling for 7 hours. All that for 15 pound, bargin. It was a great experince and one i will never forget.
Only a small post for now, lots more to come. But i'm tired and feeling abit ill, i have a cold :( Yes feel sorry for me. I will update when i get to Oz. I fly today, Bangkok time, 5pm. I'm excited but scared. Shud be ok thou. Missing you all. Oh and ive stolen some photos off sue so you can all see me. Incase you'd forgot what i looked like lol.
Bye for now x x x x
