Day 119, Rest day in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park:by Chris

Although getting up early on my designated rest day put me in a bad mood, we visited some amazing caves. The first was a gigantic underground amphitheatre, the roof of which had collapsed letting light stream in and plants to take root 100m below. The second was an awe-inspiring collection of stalectites and stalecmites. Alone with our headtorches in the silent cave, we delved as deep as was possible, admiring the glistening, sparkling towers and pools. Bats hung from the ceiling and cave crickets scurried across the floor, eating the corpses of others that had been stepped on by previous tourists
 
This photo does not do the cave justice, until you spot where Amy is!
 
. The evening give rise to a glorious orange sunset that me and Amy appreciated on an evening stroll down the white sandy beach.
