Wake up for day two of the gibbon experience was at six o clock. We had a gander around the jungle for a couple hours. We got to see the biggest tree in the forest which was around 6 arm span people wide and the impossibly high. Monks had wrapped the trunk of the tree in orange sheets for reasons which I forget and the branches were covered in dormant bee hives. We went back to the tree house for a yummy breakfast and then more trekking for 3 hours.

There was a massive fast zip wire where I didn't even have to lean back on and made the platform easy. The Last zip wire was a vast 700m long!

Then we had lunch in some tiny little village which only seemed to have one house, so questionably a village, but the chickens and animals made it seem that way. The food in Laos is so simple but so satisfying! After lunch we walked down some rocky roads to meet our pickup truck. It was the most violent journey I've ever experienced in my life on the way back, the Toyota truck just powered through everything and anything until alas the road half collapsed. We jumped out and all the locals started to work at the truck. It was stuck for more than half an hour and after many attempts of jacking up the car and digging mud out, it eventually took 12 people to push it out! I was pushing the car when the wheel flicked mud into my eye! It was a massive clump right on my eyeball. So painful! Blinded, Jessie and Nicola threw water into my eye and tried to hold me still. They managed to clean up pretty good but felt sore for a while and my TMNT t-shirt had been demolished with mud. Ken said the truck gets stuck every day during monsoon season! As the truck continued, we constantly felt like we were almost falling out. But with a legendary driver and a beast of a car we made it onto normal road.

We stopped at river to wash our hands and feet and one of the guys was washing his bum whilst still wearing his trousers. I lauded then he laughed and his friend looked at me and laughed too haha.

Back in Hua Xai, we found a hotel instantly and I had the best shower of my life. We had dinner by the riverside, as per and then said hello to friends in the sandwich shop. We met Money the cutest little toddler, yes her name was actually Money, who high fived me and said "bye bye" and waved us off.
