Trekking


I found a shesha (east Indian tobacco) bar in the hippy town of Pai. It was Jazz and Dave's first time.


First day of the trek, drinking tea from a bamboo cup one of the guides made us(check it out). And the water from the tea was boiled in a larger bamboo cup thing.
Sorry... too many pics to organize

Second night, 4 of the originally 11 ppl continued on trekking. We camped out in the jungle under this structure. It wasn't bad, but it was a little scary because all the jungle animals and bugs only started coming out after it was dark (mouse, rat, water buffalo, spiders, lots of ants, a praying mantis) .

The guides made everything from bamboo... bowls, cups, chop sticks, tent from bamboo. It was sweet.



Jazz and Dave on a 4 year old female elephant whos name I forget now. John and me rode on a 3 year old male elephant names Pee yang. On the third day of the trek, we visited a village, rode on elephant, went bamboo rafting, and toured through a cave. What more can u wish to do in a day, really.

Oh ya.. I am going to go for a sauna and a massage in a bit.


I am beginning to think that I ever want to come back to Canada. I can live here for less than 25 dollars a day and do almost anything I want
