7. Khao Sok

Today we had an early start as we were heading into the national park. It took about an hour to drive there, the drive was so scenic!
When we arrived we headed straight down to a thai longboat. We headed across the lake stopping along at certain viewpoints. It was a beautiful park with the 160 million year old coral reef jetting out from the lake with waterfalls and jungle scenes everywhere.
We first stopped at a cave which was cool, it had bats on the ceiling, big spiders and a gecko camouflaging itself against the rock. We carried on to a floating mini resort, here we had a Thai meal and then had about an hour to explore the lake by kayak. After this the ones who wanted a jungle hike jumped onto a boat and headed off to a waterfall. Due to rain season coming to an end there wasn't much to see but was still cool to get into the jungle and experience the sounds and smells.
We had a crazy thai driver taking us home, her overtaking was a bit scary! A great day in the park, now to decide if we want to go in for another hike tomorrow...Leer más
