ANGELS WHERE WE GO...

Destination: Caves

It took us little bit of time to figure out where we want to go, but after to much elaboration it was decided we shall go and see some Caves. Scott was the team leader and was trying to reassure us what a great navigation seance he's got by making turns that he did not to intent to do... And we had enough to worry about as neither of us drove motorbike before, but as we are so talented it took us not long before we were whizzing down the road 80Km/h. Scenery was spectacular, road was clear, accept for the odd pigs, chickens, cows... we have also stopped to buy some watter in one of the villages.
First there was just handful of children, but not for too long. It was amazing to see their little faces with such genuine curiosity and interest in us. We have taken some photos and showed it back to them which really made their day... by the time we left there must've been 20 kids.

Again had to stop for us to realise where we actually aiming to get to. Oh yea caves, but we did not see the sigh, so missed it, but had a lovely lunch in one of the guest houses in next village. Then after lunch found a tourist office, where we met another two people looking for caves, so we have joined them and found the caves.
The caves were amazingly...... DARK... neither of us thought of bringing a torch, so Me Romi had to be the guide with just a little flash light that I carry on me at all times, you know just in case I get stuck in cave... Also cameras where not only capturing the beauty of the caves, so we can see what we have missed, but it was also some kind of light. Hey but we had great time, even the helmets from bike came handy, as we had to go on all four to go through dark hole.
As we had the bikes for the day, we also went and saw a temple and waterfall.

PIRATI SILNIC

Cil: Jeskyne

Chvilku nam trvalo nez jsem se domluvili kam to vlastne chceme, ale po delsi diskuzi a zvazovani bylo rozhodnuto, pojedeme do jeskyni. Scott jako vudce, nas neustale presvedcoval o svych skvelych navigacnich schopnostech, porad odbocoval tam, kam puvodne nechtel... A my jsme mely jine starosti, ani jedna z nas vzivote nejela na motorce, ale protoze jsme sikovne devuchy, tak jsme to zvladly levou zadni a pelasily jsme si to 80KM/h. Vyhled byl nadherny, cesta byla prazna, jen obcas nejake psatatka, slepice, kravy... zastavili jsem v jedne vesnicce, abychom si koupili vodu.
Nejdrive tam bylo jen par deti, ale ne nadlouho. Bylo to skvele, videt jejich uprimne rozzarene zvedave oblicejicky. Udelali jsem nejake fotky a ukazali jsem jim je, mely z toho velkou srandu... kdyz jsme odjizdeli tak tam bylo asi 20 deti.

Znovu jsme zastavili, abychom se zorientovali a zjistili kam to jedeme. Jo jeskyne, ale bohuzel jsme si nevsimli ukazatele, ale dali jsem si moc dobry obed v jedne vesnicce. Po te jsme nasli turisticke centrum, kde jsme potkali dalsi dva clovicky, kteri hledali jeskyne, tak jsme se pridali a spolecnymi silami jsme nasli jeskyne.
Jeskyne byly nadherne... CERNA... tma jak v pytli, bohuzel nas nenapadlo si vzit baterku. Takze Ja Romca jsme musela delat pruvodce, svetylkem na klyce, ktere nosim pro nouzove pripady, jako treba kdybych nahodou zabloudila do jeskyni...
Take fotaky neslouzili pouze na zachyceni techto nadhernych jeskyni, abychom alespon videli jak to tam vypadalo, ale zaroven slouzilli jako zdroj svetla. Ale byla to sranda, i prilby z motorek se nam hodily, zvlast kdyz jsme museli po ctyrech prolezt nejakou tmavou dirou.
Meli jsme motorky na cely den, tak jsme se jeste zajeli podivat na jeden chram a vodopad.
