Zip-lining in the rain forest

Wow! This was amazing, we had so much fun. It all started when Joe from Friends of the Wat Don Chan (a little group that helps the kids here at the Wat) told me that a guy called Tony from Flight of the Gibbons would let orphans go free for a month. Well I just got here and the kids were on holiday from school so I got right on it! Tony said I could bring 35 kids a day to go zip-lining, have lunch and go to a great waterfall. We had 140 kids sign up and they where so happy as you will see in the pictures once I get a minute to put them up. For me it was great because Ihad never done it before and now I was going to do it everyday for 5 days. I got so sick since it rained one of the days but the kids wanted me to goso I could take pictures and video, how could I say no? Tree Top Asia is the name of the company so thanks guys and of course thanks to Tony. Here is the low down they pick you up in a great van with tons of Karaoke, suit you up to zip away, which there are 14 different stations, make you a great Thai lunch when you are done then take you to a great waterfall and serve you an amazing drink from an herb that I can’t remember the name of but I know they add ton’s of sugar but it’s still good. Most of the kids slept on the way home and I slept great those nights. The rain forest was great, the locals make their living from harvesting tea and coffee which we saw while flying as the guides call it. The guides were so nice and knowledgeable about the forest, if you come to visit me you must give this a try. I promise I will post pics soon…
