Crossing the bamboo bridge.
I remembered to put up my mosquito net last night, but it still didn’t stop the swarm of ants and mosquitoes which landed 82 bites around one of my ankles (yes I counted)!

Firstly I’d like to state waking up in the jungle and realising you forgot to put up a mosquito net is not too pleasant. A lot of anti-septic cream later, we set off through the rest of the village passing the nearby school, where even English lessons are part of the curriculum.

There are many things which fly in the jungle. Mosquitos is probably the first that comes to mind (can you sense the bitterness here?), exotic birds next, and maybe even flying squirrels. Humans is not normally on the list, but I went to add it to the list with the jungle flight tour.
