Over chistmas I heard alot of the Jingle Bells song. It reminded me of Bukkit Lawang - Sumatra, they have a song for the tourists there..to the tune of jingle bells.
"Jungle Trek, jungle trek, In bukkit lawang, see the birds and see the monkeys and see the orangutan!"
I would really love to go back, there was a moment that i had which is one of the best things that has ever happened to me. We had just finished trekking for about 5-6 hours through the rainforest and we got to our riverside camp. And by river side i mean it was a little bank on the side of a river haha. So we all went swimming and then were told that there was a waterfall a bit further down stream. So me, david plus maybe 5 other people went to check it out. We came to this little waterfall with a pool at the bottom of it but you could see further up that there were bigger and better waterfalls. Everyone else went up. I stayed in the tiny pool on my own sat on a fallen down tree. They were out of ear shot and it felt like i was in the jungle on my own. It was incredible, i looked down and saw that there were the little fish that eat dead skin swimming around and nibbling my feet and legs.
One of the best memories of my life. Just thought i would share that with whoever reads it.
