Rather than get some kip like everyone else before dinner, I got drawn into an 'a bis' contest with Han and three local drivers: Ambulance, Helicopter and Bulldozer.
The next morning, I and everyone else were hobbling, feeling the effects of the climb. The hot springs were not great, basically bath tubs with sulphur water on drip. The massage later in the day was better, but extremely painful!
Scotland and I went to see Jackie, the resident orangutan in the park nearby. It was my first sight of an orangutan and I loved it - so human-like in its behaviour. On our return, we saw a snake that must have been around half a metre in length.
It was pouring down with rain in Poring, and there was little to do on our final night - so it turned out to be very messy in the confines of the Round Inn. There was a guitar, lots of singing by locals and us, lots of Uno and other card games, drinking games, skulling of beer with vodka, and for some unknown reason, throughout the night, the owner's wife kept on slapping me. It was a very late night.
