I was still feeling quite icky though, but luckily I perked up when ...
Arriving in the big smoke
... then entered the rubber tree forests where thousands of trees are grown for, well rubber!! We were able to walk in the forest and learn how the rubber is farmed. It's amazing and you can actually pull the rubber, latex straight from the tree just like an elastic band.
