Day 101, 15km: by Amy

We cycled the short distance into Phu Chong Nayoi national park which is apparently an unmapped area of jungle at the border with Laos and Cambodia with a large waterfall at its centre. 
We pitched our tent near the visitors centre (again for free). And cycled off map-less to explore the park . Because we'd seen a scout group and a double decker bus full of Thai tourists heading for the waterfall we took a smaller trail and spent most of the day relaxing by a little stream off the beaten track. 
We cycled to the waterfall later in the afternoon. where we cooled off in the plunge pool at the bottom which was full of fish who liked to nibble feet, like a free foot spa. However, being ticklish I stuck to paddling. Chris got his goggles out and dived in. However, by then the fish were not interested, until he started offering them Oreos.
