Trekking in Vang Vieng.

So as I said, it rained, it rained alot, and we all got soaked. The river split its banks and the island was gone, beneath 4 ft of water. We went trekking, not really thinking about the rain, and believe it or not, not considered what it would've done to the trekking. We went onto find out that everywhere we were expected to walk was soggy and muddy. However we had paid for this trip, and was not gonna have our spirits dampened.
So we headed out into the middle of no where, where our guide, who wore flip flops the whole time, took us to a set of caves. The first was a water cave. Couldn't go in though, as the river was too high. Then the 2nd, no go, as it was too slippery and an old man had already slipped and smashed his camera. So we settled for a little lunch and was to enter the 3rd cave.
We finally managed to get to the cave, they gave us a head lamp which was suppose to be water proof. Turned out the battery was in a plastic bag, and placed into a plastic box, water proof!!
We went into the cave, about 500 metres, although it goes for much further. We didn't fancy going in more as it became harder to manage not slipping over. Apparantley you can walk into the cave for about 4 km and there is a waterfall, but no oxygen and highly dangerous. So we stayed within 1km.
