The day begun with another early morning start with a full meal breakfast of noodles fried banana and fresh fruit breakfast was soon followed by an exciting long car ride with amazing scenery dry shrubs and red dirt . two hours later we finally arrived at our detestation witch was the hill tribes. the hill tribes was a different expedience seeing how the other halve of life lives witch is much different then back home. we went into there homes witch were pretty much bamboo strips as the walls and a timer roof the whole house was about the size of my bedroom with was sad to think about but that is all they have and that's home to them right ... ? we did do a good dead by giving them noodles and candy for the kids we all so gave them bags of clothes to the diffident family's and sung songs . the people were quite nice we talked to 16 year old girl who had a 1 year old child and her 15 year old husband was working in the fields witch hit me pretty close to home because that could be me next year ! we soon greeted by the preschool children and there smiling faces lit up when we gave them gifts like pencils and rubbers. after visiting the hill tribes we then hoped in our mini vans for another bumpy car drive but this time to amazing waterfall that we were all exiting visit and have a swim in the fresh waters it was another two hours to get there but it was defiantly worth the drive when we got to jump off a rock into the depths of the cold water. every one got involved taking pictures and swimming and just enjoying the day! most of us had a sleep on the way back to hostel including myself. soon after we came back it was time for another meal witch consisted of rice, curry, fish and egg. after dinner it time for some teaching english to chidren witch is allways a chalnge and our last challenge for the day was learning thai dancing .
