Today was our free day, but we made it the most intense free day ever. The 4 of us (myself, Dew, Greg and his host brother) decided to meet at 9am to do some mountain biking. I don’t mean some little coast around town, no, we went all out. My host brother even hired a guide to take us into the mountains. Fueled by egg sandwiches and Thai red bull, we set off around the winding trails. My bike was a bit too small for me but we made it work. We eventually made it up the mountain to a large earthen damn before setting back for home. The weather was hot and humid, especially so today. I definitely got a sun burn today but its all good. Upon returning after lunch, I tried to catch up on some journaling while the others went for another massage. Meanwhile, my host dad cut me open a coconut and sticking a straw into it handed it to me to drink. There is actually quite a lot of liquid in a coconut. For lunch, we went to a local restaurant to try some of their famous “Patai”. It was pretty good. In the afternoon, we went to a few different shopping places and I bought some stuff, including a knock off rolex watch for about 30$ Canadian. It decided to rain again while we were at the computer market so we had some coffee and coke at a small café. Later we went to the night bazaar and ate supper at McDonalds; I had a Thai Big Mac, it tasted just the same as anywhere else in the world (which is exactly what they want) It was all good.
