Day 12 - Phong Nha-Ke Bang

Up early with soup noodles to get us ready for the days activities.
Once camp is packed up, we have an up and down trek through the jungle to the base camp for the Tra Ang cave.
A scramble up a series of rocks in our trunks, sandals and helmets and we arrive to the cave entrance.
We swim 300m into the cave, and all natural light disappears after 100m.
The cavern is vast, we see an occasional bat in our torch beams, and the echos of Dad's singing is beautiful!
The current in the cave is in our favour for the return leg, and we pull ourselves back up in to the light.
Time for more expedition food!
We are made BBQ chicken and pork laid out in a pile with cucumber, some leaves and rice paper to make our own spring rolls.
Then across the river and final section of the hike. We return to the road and our van which has a cold drink waiting for all of us.
Back home for a well earned shower.
Dinner in town at the Indian curry restaurant!Читать далее
