After taking a while to wake up we went and managed to rent a Quad bike, this thing was an absolute weapon! Full manual which took a bit to get used to and it was a 250, getting used to driving on the opposite side of the road was also a bit scary ( Yes somehow the police didn't care that Bec and I were hooning around the center of Vang Vieng on a noisy as hell quad bike !?!?!?!?!)
We ended up taking it out to some caves for a bit of gander, but got too hot and had the wrong footwear to do too much climbing. We then took it out to Mr Thi's Organic Farm where we had an absolutely BRILLIANT meal, everything is grown organically on the farm - go the mulberry shakes! It was also here that we experienced the most odd thing on the trip so far, a group of 4 chinese men drive a car down into the Nam Song river, got changed into speedos in the river and then started to wash it with nothing but dirty river water and a t-shirt - NUTS!
They were part of a massive tour group which required a guide to show them the "Massive" town of Vang Vieng.......
Overall another awesome day!
