As promised here they are; Fiona, Lou, Catherine, Ajay, Claire, Nicky, Emma and of course me behind the camera. Look how clean and tidy we look, it wasn't to last...
...the enigmatic Bhunpendy (hopefully spelled right) ready to go...
...passing under Mina, who definitely wanted whatever food we had. Fortunately our calm and confident guides negotiated this situation with consummate ease (ahem...)
...camp one, cooking time...
...breakfast the next morning proved irresistible for this Macaque...
...the view for a lot of the trek...
...everybody except Lou who decided to wisely abstain after tripping flat on her face before we even left camp got a chance for a swing, with Bhunpendy(again sorry about the spelling) and Claire showing us how it's done...
...then me...
...Emma...
...Nicky...
...Fiona...
...Catherine...
...and finally Ajay with a little style thrown in...
...Catherine taking a break...
...Dani having a breather as he fished in the cave...
...more fishing as we made our way along the river...
...and of course resting and smoking, smoking being something the guides and porters were world champions at...
...helping hands through one of the many river crossings...
...Fiona's special treat as she gets to be Princess for the day, much to Selamat's glee...
...practically one of the only wildlife spots of the trek, a deer at a watering hole. You have to look hard to see her...
...we did however see some cool smaller stuff with this tortoise being a fine example...
...on our last night the rain was even heavier than any of the other nights, Agus heroically fixing our camp during the rain...
...and not long after in the massively swollen river, Agus having a little bit of fun. It took him 3 walks back up and then trips down to finally get back out again on the right side...
...however the next morning for our tubing back to Bukit Lawang the weather was shaping up nicely...
...the sun had got his hat on and every one knew that there would be no more sleeping on rocks under tarps for the foreseeable future...
...so with a bit of sunscreen applied...
...the last few photos taken, it was time to pack all our gear into waterproof bags and raft all the way back to Bukit Lwawang...
...and here we are, the whole group back at Bukit Lawang. It was a great six days with a great group of people.
