This tree was huge, and around one million years old (rough estimate).
This ant was the size of a mouse, and twice as deadly. They were all over the jungle.
The path was covered with treacherous tree roots.

Michelle was really scared, but not too scared to take pictures.

The river and the numerous river-side restaurants.
A friendly man gave us some giant Malaysian peas and some mangos that looked like brains.
