Khao Sok Continued
We where only able to stay there for 2 days but it was an amazing two days. In the morning when you wake up in this place you wake up to a million different birds singing and one of the most remarkable animal calls I have ever heard. It was the mating call of the Gibbon which is one of the largest and most advanced ape species in the world. The sounds that that make are really something and to wake up to them in the morning is really really awesome. It was the most unique wake up call that I had ever had. After we ate breakfast we got into some Kayaks and started down the lake. It was a truly maginifcent trip we paddled for about an hour and a half and came to thi cave that was sitting right there on the water. We where with some people who had been there before so it was not like we where the first people to ever go into this cave but anyway. There we where in this cave that we could paddle into and once you get in about half way it gets almost pitch dark and you can see all kinds of bats flying around and hanging from the ceiling it was really amazing. It was pretty creepy to see all of the bats flying around and we where just sitting there on a Kayak it was awesome. We paddled down a little farther and we decided to turn around and on our way back we decided to go for a swim because the temperature was about 85 degrees. Well we where able to get off the Kayak just fine but getting back on was a totally different story. There where 3 of us on this Kayak and two of us got on just fine and then when the third tried to get on the entire thing capsized. We all started grabbing everything we could and we only ended up losing one bandana. I was pretty impressed considering all of the flip flops and things that we had on the boat. It was just an amazing trip and it some place I wish everyone could go to just see the beauty of he rainforest it was truly awesome.
