Another outing

After our outing to Monkey Island, we were keen on going somewhere nice rather than freaky and heard about a waterfall in the mountains, so off we went on the old bikes again.

I got to drive too and it's so much fun! Phil and I will defo get a motorbike when we get back - it's great! We went through countryside and lush rice paddies, saw some beautiful mountains and met people who were really surprised at seeing us in their villages. We also drove through herds of cows and buffaloes and jumped over massive pot holes and crossed big puddles on our way - alas, we thought we were close to the waterfall, but we then were stopped in our tracks by a river. Shame - we daren't cross it on the bikes, as it was quite deep, so instead we had a picknick there and enjoyed the scenery.

On our way back, Tom's tyre blew. We stopped to inspect the damage and some locals saw us and realised what the problem was. They peed themselves laughing! We didn't really see the joke, but went along with it for a while until Tom got p*ssed off and they finally directed us to a roadside 'garage'. The guy there set to work on the tyre straight away and fixed it in a jiffy! He did the whole thing in about 10 minutes flat and then charged something like $2. How cheap is that! We couldn't believe it.

On we went and ended up in this funny resto where we ordered drinks by randomly pointing at the menu. Tom and I got coffee and Phil got a tomato, milk and carrot juice. Heheheh.
