| Harvest time |
Actually not a bad night sleep; we stayed in a big hut, mattresses side by side and just a few blankets for home comforts, but after the hike and a rum we had no problem getting to sleep. No one snored so that was a bonus!
The hilltribe we stayed with are Lahou, meaning hunter, and they originated from China. They certainly know how to look after you, last night a beautiful dinner of yellow curry, fresh vegetables and rice and this morning fresh scrambled eggs and toast.

We set off, another two and a half hour walk, again pretty scenery and arrived at the waterfall feeling extremely hot, so although the water was freezing we all got in for a swim. Not many other people there at all, our guide certainly knew how to pick the right spot.

Reluctantly we carried on, only twenty minutes and then we got picked up and taken for lunch.
In the afternoon we went rafting, which sounds more exciting than it was; this rafting was a gentle ride on a bamboo raft.
Finally time to get back in the song taew, we were all very tired by now and we got dropped back at the hotel by 5.30.

A quick shower and dinner at a huge food 'court' but sitting on hay bales and listening to some nice live music while having a gin & tonic. An excellent finish to a great couple of days!
