Today we woke up and went across the street to the street market for breakfast. There was a variety of shops open there as well as many street vendors preparing food. The breakfast was good! We had a rice soup with pork in it and waffles, and some other things that I am not sure of the name but were good. Later we rode in the back of a pickup truck up into the mountains were we hiked in to a great waterfall and swimming pond. We brought with us a drink that Nichole had prepared that translates literally into the words Vagina Juice. I am not sure of the ingredients but it is suppose to be good for a woman's inner parts and thus the name.
Before we left Nichole warned us about a caterpillar type insect that is beautiful bright colors that all the Thai people warn to stay clear of! We saw one on the path! The insects here are completely huge and spiders can get bigger than your fist! Saw lots of fruit trees and on the hike we passed a dam. Apparently, the King is crazy about dams and has had
many made. The heat is so different as is everything here! Everything seems so strange but the worst part , I think, is no translations on signs and billboards, or packages in the stores. Everything is in Thai! . There are few people that speak English and without Nichole it would be a mess! I have traveled a lot but everywhere I have gone there was always someone around that spoke English!
We hiked back out of the path that brought us to the waterfall and rode back to our hotel to change and get ready to visit the Monks.
