Bako National Park

We spent the last two days at Bako National Park, just an hour from the B&B yet you will never see such contrast in scenery, from the hustle and bustle of the town centre to an idealic island of jungle forests and crocodile filled lake. We started the day with a boat ride which Im not sure everyone enjoyed (Rob/Abbie/Emma), We then planned a small trek from our acclimatisation, yet I think we all underestimated walking in such heat with our rucksacks on and a few of us may have been complaining but we journey on and ended at a 'post card worthy' beach which we all felt was extremely deserved. Later that evening we settled down for dinner and was a few times joined by a couple of chip stealing monkeys, we then went about the task of setting up our tents for the night for some this was second nature for others they may have needed some extra help, with the heat and tents fully packed no one will be wanting to sleep in tents any time soon. Morning came and once again so did the task of getting everyone up and ready ofcourse the men being an easy half hour before the women, breakfast (looking very similar to dinner) and a boiling hot coffee was gladly recieved, followed by an afternoon walk Im sure we all feel totally ready for our trek ... well maybe. So we journeyed back and jumped straight in the shower which for all felt heavenly. So now being the teenagers we are we're going try and find a takeaway,

Im sure everyone sends their love,

Jon
