This lack of control lead me to have four attempts at parrellel parking, right outside the shop with the woman looking out in horror at who was driving her expensive Toyota saloon car.
We first started driving towards tiger cave temple, but I got distracted by a sign for fossil beach. So we went there instead!
After Stacey and I got ice creams we hopped back in the car to Tiger cave temple. Monica gave very clear and accurate directions. Which I chose to ignore and drive us 15 minuets in the wrong direction; before listening to her before she beat me up and we got to the temple.
We explored for a while and after 1200 steps -which is even more than it sounds!- Monica and I reached the limestone karst mountain summit for an amazing vista.
Unfortunately the guy we asked to photograph us took a shot with the only cloud around in the background!
We then got back in the car and drove to the hot springs. Excited, we all changed in the car park. Only to find out that the 'hot spring' advertised was actually just a heated swimming pool.
Dejected we tried again for the 'hot stream' this time. Success! Except it was closed due to rain. After begging the security guard we finally got in and enjoyed the 'hot spring' which I think should really be rebranded 'teped spring' to be more accurate.
But at least I learned my lesson about jumping in things when you can't see the bottom. I was just about to bomb into the pool when my still sore neck reminded me to jump in a little more carefully. What a good job as it was only knee deep!
We stopped on the way back for some market food and a relaxed evening.
