We were anchored off an uninhabited island and went to the shore looking for a fresh water pipe that we had heard ran out at the beach. We found the pipe and a group of fishermen, their wives and children. We said “Hello!” They said “Hello! Would you like some food?” Heidi explained that we had no money but they just laughed and told us that they were there for a picnic and we were invited.
You can catch a cab to the bottom of the mountain, then take the gondola to the top and join all the other tourists taking photos of the view. Or you can walk to the road-head and then hike up in to the mountains and cool off at a selection of waterfalls. We chose the second option. The jungle is hot and humid now, during the rainy season, which makes the walking a warm exercise. The good news is that the stream water feels so much more refreshing.
On the way down we found a slide through the rocks which looked interesting but was a little too exciting at the bottom where a whirlpool spun you round so that you needed help to escape.
Our route is at Alltrails.
Heidi chipped a piece of a tooth so we visited Dr. Michelle the next day. She fixed the tooth and another one. A few days later she prepared a crown for Heidi. Neill was next and Dr. Boey did three hours of microsurgery on tooth roots and then the next day Dr. Michelle prepared a crown. The dentists practice is like a spaceship. Dr Boey worked with micro-drills through a microscope and Heidi could follow the whole operation on a computer screen. All our teeth were scanned with a 3D scanner and the 3D models were fired off to China where they are building our new crowns based on the scans. Amazing!
love the video
