We jumped onto our boat getting ready for our adventure. We had lunch, which was fresh fruit, spring rolls, and thai currys. I had to have a gluten free meal wich was rice dotted with little pieces of carrot and broccoli it was delicious!


We enjoyed the wonderfull views, then settled down as the main instructor started to explain the safety's of the kayaking. When there was low caves we had to lie down with our hands straight down and our knees never bent. We also had to stay very quiet other wise we will disturb the wild life leaving nobody to enjoy it.


After the safety briefing we pulled names out of a hat so we could get our boating instructor we got mr tee! All the instructors went down stairs to get the kayaks out. Once done they took the boats into the water and we took turns to get into them. We kayaked into the first caves it was beautiful, we learnt about the sparkly stalactites, four legged fish and mangrove trees. It was so much fun!


After that we got free time. We swam in n and under the fantastic caves, screamed at mushy sea weed and admired the heart heart shape opening in the trees. Soon it was time to go back into the boat and get dry. We made traditional creations called Krathongs, they are decorated with flowers, plants and candles, they are to honour the water God. We put them by the table and got ready for dinner.


Then again I a gluten free meal- which was sooooooo good! It was tiny corns chicken and pineapple, it also had heaps of dressings as well (wich are coeliac, not just gluten intolerant). After all that food I was stuffed and tired. We'll surprise! surprise! We're going on another boat trip!


Soon enough we were back in the kayaks. We went out to the bat caves and let the Krathong go. Then we went back into the boat and went back home after a long day. It was amazing!
