now y'all know i'm allergic to exercise, so after 6km worth of hiking back and fro yesterday, you'd think that i'd dropped dead right away. behold the miracle of modern medicine! Abah has wisely provided some drugs to 'numb' the pain... some muscle relaxant something or other. so today would be another exciting day of more exercise, with more pain as bonus. bliss.

hahah kidding y'all! it wasn't that bad (thanks to the drugs), and we did enjoy the hike. so today we went by boat to Wind and Clearwater Cave. Nelson, our guide, told us on normal days we could take a dip in the Clearwater Cave, but it was raining hard last night, so the water was really rapid (it was a big cave). the Wind Cave has weird rock formations and, erm, wind. really beautiful.

in the afternoon we hiked some more to the Canopy Walk, for a walk among the trees. definitely something to remember for an acrophobic (fear of heights) like me.
