Caving and tigers

hope there are still acouple poeple following this! i haven't had time to update the blog in over a week it looks like! lots has happened. soo i'll try and not go into a great deal of detail.

The trip started out with alot of travelling. We started in Phuket at one of the missionaries houses and then headed south towards Bangkok. A 5 hr bus ride followed by 6 hrs of sitting in the train station and then a 10 hr over night train. Long day but we finally made it to a small city just outside of Bangkok. From there we got on a connecting train which was supposed to take us west towards Kanchaniburi. After about 3 hrs on this train (had to stand because it was so crammed) we realized we where heading bak to phuket where we had just came from. haha it was bound to happen. Spent the next 2 nights in Hua hin a popular tourist town. while we were there we spent one of the days hiking and then going through this amazing cave! it was amazing! the size of the cavern was unbelievable! Our transportation there... motorcycle taxi. now try and imagine the Driver, Adam, and myself on one motorcyle. the half an hour ride we thought it was going to be turned into an hour and a half literally... lets just say it'll never happen again.

Today we went to the tiger Temple. They have about 10 adult tigers and 6 young cubs. We got to take pics with the adults and the cub right after we signed the waivers haha. It was amazing and slightly unsettling. I have a picture of this massive tiger with its head in my lap! Definately something Adam and myself will never forget. After that we walked around the rest of the "zoo".. well it was a zoo in there. the animals run free. no cages. water buffalo, hogs, peacocks, cows, dear and more. they said over a 1000 animals just roam free. Something i don't think they would get away with in Canada.

Sorry i do not have my computer with my anymore soo i won't be able to upload pictures. If you would like to see pictures feel free to contact me when i get home and i can get them to you.
