Walked, saw trees, walked, saw trees, walked, saw trees, walked, saw trees.
This is what I wanted to put as I'm so so tired but guess its not enough.
Stayed at nice place guest house last night for the first time! It was a nice place!! ;) The people who run it are lovely! Woke up to a guy thudding on our door shouting 'treck treck treck' I nearly shouted another word that begins with T.
Got showered and ready and has breakfast sandwiches from the restaurant! 40 baht (80p) Added onto the bill.
Went to pay for the bill and as we already paid for the accommodation and treck we only paid for 2 meals at dinner, 2 litres of water, 2 changs, 2 meals at breakfast and 2 more waters which all came to 175 baht (£3.50 between us)
Got on the truck that as taking us, there is 3 other boys on this tour all from israel! Truck took 3 hours to get up to the mountains! Was a bit cooler up there but I'm not talking much like half a 'C! And I don't have a clue where we are anymore might not be in Chiang Mai! Found put we are in Chiang Dao.
Went to this wooden farm house and a cute lady made us rice with veg and brought us out a plate of papaya! It cost 10 baht for a 2 litre bottle of water (20p) so I splashed out!
The tour guide spoke to me for a bit and I told him I dont like animals or bugs. He said not to worry as he had a gun and a machetes knife. Right after this he made us try what he was drinking and it was pure whiskey! Not filled with confidence.
Then we set off walking and walking and walking and walking and walking. Saw lots of trees and lots of bugs and insects! Just imagine me in the jungle! I hope your not laughing! Walked from 1 till 7 in the hot, humid, sticky, smelly, muddy, horrible, wet, rainy, sweaty, Ming mong of a jungle! Walking up and down and up and down and up and down and up and down mountains! It was so hard and tiring! Every mountain the tour guide saw he wanted to go! My ears kept popping! I don't even like grass for gods sake never mind jungle!!!
The only thing keeping me going was that we were always far ahead of the tour guide who does this 3 time a week. Clearly we are athletes! Olympics here we come!
I fell over 27 times sliding down mountains, tripping over rocks, tripping over boulders, being chased by moths and every other creature. Swear some of the tree are from jumanji!
Me and Michael counted and we each drank 4.5 litres of water!!! Everyone was like dripping wet though it was so hot! Lovely, I know!
The boys swear they saw a monkey though! Walked to a waterfall which I didn't want to see and it was the best feeling in the world to just stand with my feet in the stream. Then walked another hour to get to the 5* Hilton suit we are staying in (wooden shack in the jungle, no electricity, no nothing just me, Michael and a mosquito net that has hole in. Bad times. Even shouting 'I'm a celebrity' didn't work! Ant and dec of your reading this your getting a pay cut! I can't even get a shower cos its right next to the social table, I'm the only girl and it's like one piece of bamboo as the whole cubical. There is no way.
Got called to have dinner and mine was papaya, potato and tofu with rice. Was alright apart from the millions of bugs attacking and ganging up against me! Everyone else found this hilarious. As you can imagine, I did not.
After the worst dinner of my life we sorted out our double mosquito net so we didn't touch the sides and had a killing spree of all the bugs ready to pounce on us while sleeping.
So we are stuck here, not socialising cos we don't like bugs, we stink and are mega tired!
Got elephant riding and water rafting tomorrow though!
