Weekend Adventures part 1/Jungle Jump Shots

Sorry for the delay in posts this week. It was an intense third week of massage school where we learned Therapeutic Thai Massage. We covered methods to solve certain ailments such as pains, strains, sprains, menstrual cramps, constipation and emotional stress. So if you're sore, constipated, crampy and feel like you're going to burst into tears, I got you, boo.

But before all that therapeutic education began, a bunch of us from school hired a van to drive us up to Doi Inthanon National Park last weekend.

(Call me crazy, but for some reason it reminded me of the bus ride to camp...)

The park is home to Thailand's highest mountain/a great place to host international meetings

 Three waterfalls

Jungle trails (which are apparently good for creeping)

And many beautiful temples.

There were so many beautiful places in the park, that I just wanted to jump for joy. The following is a little series of photos I like to call Jungle Jump Shots.

What better way to cool off from all that jump cardio than a quick dip in a waterfall? (With fresh papaya, of course)

After drying off, we went in search of a cave that was supposedly in the area. We made a few wrong turns and found ourselves in a dried up river bed. Sometimes the wrong turns in life can lead to beautiful and unexpected discoveries.

It's nice to take those moments to sit back and smell the jungle flowers.
