My diary
I woke this morning to my first upset stomach. I didn't think much of it and had breakfast before setting off on a minibus ride to Kuang Si waterfall. This bus journey was the worst trip I had done so far, twice as bad as the famous bus to Pai... It all began being picked up from my hostel door and I was the last to get in (well I presumed I was as I took the last seat...)...oh no no no I was wrong, apparently there was room for another 3 passengers...?!
Sat right at the back with another British boy who wasn't feeling great, we tried to decide which end our "upset stomachs" were going to exit from...this soon became clear for me after arriving at the waterfall..I'll leave the rest up to your imagination but either way, the toilet did not have a flush and a queue of 30 tourists were waiting patiently to use the facilities after me....
After a perfect afternoon (believe it or not) swimming in the 3 layers of the waterfall, I met a friend from Cornwall who happened to be staying in the same town. We headed to the night market where I watched her eat and then to a bar where I watched her drink. In bed all day tomorrow for me I think...
