Jungle Boogie

We’ve had enough beach. Its time for the jungle. So we hop on a bus to Khao Sok, a national park about 4 hours away. The drive is beautiful, lovely green mountains on both sides. For a snack we have banana leaves stuffed with sticky rice and banana, sticky rice and sweet potato, sticky rice and an undetermined root vegetable. Delicious. When we arrive in Khao Sok it was surprisingly full, but we found a giant tree house with a hot shower, perfect for Rachel’s itchy welts. We toddle around on a motorbike, taking in the scenery and some local villages, Johnny swims in the river behind an exclusive resort, we scramble through a hidden cave to another point of the river and Johnny swims again, surrounded by tons of orange fish. After a curry dinner, we call it an early night.
