In which we play in a waterfall, and find a very empty island.

This was an island where we stayed on a beach in a hotel room where we were not allowed alcohol because of the muslin owners. Fair enough. We went out that night for some food an found it to be the deadest place we had been to yet. Presumably because it was downtime but either way it was very dead. Because of this it was also very cheap. We ate and played a few games of pool in a small bar where the owner was very very attentive and chatty to his only 3 customers.

The day after.... Yes! What great fun, we found a waterfall! At the top of the waterfall (which translated into English was called seven wells) there were many natural pools which we swam in and there were also rocks with water going down it into the next pool which you could slide down because the water had made the rocks so smooth. It was awsome! However, it wasn't a place which was advertised as a place to swim and slide so we had to be careful not to slide down the 'will definately kill you' main waterfall. Also there were natural plunge pools which you could jump into. And cos it was low season there were very few people there.

The bottom of the waterfall also had small lakes to swim in so we did that too! And swam under the fall. It was very cool!

That night we went out and met a couple of people who we spoke to for a while in bar, then off to the deadest club in the entire world. However, wee then found the ONLY place on the island with anything happening. It was a bar and it was packed. Which was really wierd considering the rest of the island.

We met a group of guys who kept buying bottles of vodka so that was free drinks all night. Met alot of nice people! Had a GREAT night!

Day after, we clear our hangovers and moe down to Penang.

Next one is that.
