I can climb mountains!!

Soooo.....today was awesome......if you like excruciating pain and mental agony! I exagerate......it wasnt so bad....was it?

Yes folks today was one of those fabled 'Evil B*tch days'. Today we rode our bikes 112km up and through a bunch of mountains, this took roughly 9 and a half hours.

We saw many amazing sites that most people will never have the opportunity to witness such as mystical misty mountain jungle, cascading and dramatic waterfalls right up high so you cant reach them, beautiful and serene paddy fields with water buffalo wading through, mountain terraces and crisp mountain air.......it surely was one of the most beautiful days so far!!

This, however, does not detract from the fact that my arse and my legs are now in severe irrepairable pain and that as soon as my head hits the pillow I will fall straight to sleep and i could probably sleep for a whole week!! As it happens, I wont be able to sleep for a week....in fact I will have to get up at 6am tmrw and do another 70km through..........mountains!!

I dont want your sympathy folks.......i just want your donations!!! Remember, if you havent allready done so, please please contribute to this worthy cause......no, not the slow and violent destruction of my bottom, but the kids of Cat Dang village!!

Thanks for reading!!

-Pierre
