^Are they broken? I can see them when you've reposted them.

**SKkin** · 21-11-2018, 07:59 AM

^ All I can see is the two at "start of the hike"

But not "people at the wake playing cards" or "walk on"

I dunno,,,

**katie23** · 21-11-2018, 08:11 AM

**AntRobertson** · 21-11-2018, 08:19 AM

This is what I'm seeing...

Hiking in the Phils-capture-jpg

Just the links. They appear when clicked though.

**katie23** · 21-11-2018, 08:39 AM

^yeah, someone has to quote my post so that the pics are seen on the thread.

Net is a bit crappy now, I'm trying to edit former posts and fix the pic links

Edit: ok, I've fixed the links for the "walk on" and "people playing cards" posts. Hopefully they show now.

Papaya River...it's a water source (can refill water bottles). It took us ~ 2 hrs to get to the river. Then we rested there for ~1 hour. Some team-mates took a nap.

^lol. Well, I do have lumps. Some of them in the right and wrong places. Heh.

Very very nice K-Pop, there's much to be said about getting out of the city.

Just spent a few days outside of Bkk and it's great to see the stars, feel the cooler air and see the natural beauty.

Update to the thread.

Did a twin hike yesterday - Mt Manalmon and Mt Gola in the town of San Miguel, province of Bulacan. They are good for beginners at 196 MASL. The two mountains are part of Biak na Bato National Park. This national park has historical significance b cos during the time of the Spaniards, revolutionaries like Emilio Aguinaldo and colleagues used the cave system to hide from the Spaniards.

The caves were also used in a local TV series, Mulawin (about mythical bird-human creatures, very popular at that time).

Aside from the mountains, one of the highlights of the trip was the "monkey bridge" crossing. It's just wires suspended over the Madlum River.

^top stuff miss Katie.

Looks like proper Bear Grylls shit with that wire bridge.

If we end up drinking our own urine to survive I am popping some beroccas in mine as I heard that improves the palate considerably even if technically it is considered cheating!

I will consult with Mr Earl on this matter by PM.

(EDIT: except just remembered I can't since he is banged up in the monkey house).

Free Earl!!

**katie23** · 24-12-2018, 09:34 AM

^thanks dahling loopy. I'm sure you can handle yourself of that wire bridge. I'll stay on the other bridge, cheer & support you, and take your pics!

many more pics from this hike, but will have to wait - got stuff to do.

Merry Christmas everyone! Hugs to all!

**katie23** · 24-12-2018, 04:11 PM

It drizzled during our hike. Then there was a rainbow! Merry Christmas to all!
