This morning we got up early and treked up to the bat caves on the other side of the river.
Twenty minutes in and I was cursing David like mad as it was an almost vertical climb up the side of the mountain, covered in jungle and about 105 degress. I looked like I was going to explode.
Another hour (!!!) into the climb and we managed to get to the peak and into the bat caves. I must admit that it was pretty cool. Lots of guano everywhere though - very smelly.
On the way down, it was pretty steep but I only fell over once (pretty good for me) and I did feel very smug when we got back and they told us that we had broken the speed record for that trek. It normally takes 4 hours and we did it in 2 1/2 hours. Pretty good eh?
My thighs are going to feel it tomorrow though. And note how sweaty I am in the photos!
