... handy in my slightly hungover state). Although we had to get out of the train after about half an hour to go through customs. When we got back on Katie spotted a number of cockroaches we had missed in our bleary 5:30 state. After a bit of flapping about we got rid of them and they left us alone for the remainder. It took us about 6 hours to make it to Jerantut - most of which was spent asleep or looking out to ...

We met an Irish family here who were a good laugh and an aussie family on the bus down to the jungle who were also good craic so spent the couple of days with them. We did a night jungle walk also which was deadly saw some snakes spiders stick insects and scorpions ...

... sign up I had to go along with what was available. I joined Tom and Hazel just as my pancake arrived and went back to the guesthouse, realising on the way that ALL my clothes were being washed and wouldn't be available until after the trek! Damn!

We carry on further and see more deer and a big frog, we hear ottors and then on the way back down river we see an owl, a night jack and some other birds as well as loads of fire flys.
