Thailand 2017
4 februari 2017 - Erawan National Park, Thailand
Today our first real tourist sightseeing in Thailand, we planned a hike to the Erawan waterfalls, a visit to the Death Railway and a walk on the Bridge over the river Kwai.
At 8.00 the tour guide came with a minivan to bring us to the waterfalls, we did not sleep well, so it seemed a bit early. ( you know me ).
At the waterfalls we started walking up the mountain, level 1, 2 , 3 and 4 were OK and we expected to finish at level 7 easily. Of course, we did not! First some kind of bug bit me in my foot, then it seemed, that the track was getting really difficult after level 5 and finally, between 5 and 6 we encountered a blue lagoon that we had to swim in. Sometimes, why reach higher when everything you need is there where you are!!!
So the walk up was finished and after a while we
started to walk down again and found a bamboo bed to sleep on, as the Thai showed us how to do this and we are fast learners, ( in this case) we took a nap.
Still tired we had to go back for lunch and the historical and cultural activities that we planned in the afternoon.
Tomorrow we will travel back to Bangkok again, so probably an easy day .

Mooie foto's
Als ik dit zie moet ik mijn plannen maar wijzigen en ook op pad gaan.
Mooie omgeving en best wel vernieuwend op wat we hier gewend zijn.
Blijf verstandig en rust op de juiste momenten. Het lichaam geeft dat wel aan
Blijf genieten.
