Visited the local market to pick up food and supplies before heading to an amazing home stay in the monkey forest. As the bridge has never been completed we had to ditch the bus and our bags and wade through the river to the island.
The island is home to a sacred forest full of Rhesus Macaque monkeys who definitely enjoyed the bananas we brought them.
Quick stop to visit turtle lake where soft shelled turtles are revered by the locals. Also visited a 200 year old Hotay Pidok Buddhist library with scriptures written on palm leaves.
We sat up quite late playing games with the kids and then some games of cards with lots of laolao doing the rounds.
Excellent night!
