REVISIT SECRET GARDEN OF PADAWAN (2nd PAGE)

We met a lot of local villagers walking along the trail. They were very friendly to us and told us the direction to Sait. Among the villagers, we're impressed to meet a young lady with her family who were returning home from the hospital after giving birth to a healthy baby. Her parents were carrying at least 10-15kg of foods and baby products and they had to walk at least 4 hours to their remote village!!! We felt that we're so lucky to live in the city where we do not need to walk and taking the bus to the hospital which the journey may take one whole day.

The most exciting part during our trip was the bamboo bridge crossing. I was the last one to cross the bridge because I am afraid of height. However, Mimik and Zam were shocked to see a dog could walk across the bridge and over took both of them easily through the tiny space. It was an amazing dog!

The water is rich in mineral. Ivy is washing her face by using the natural mineral water.

The second bamboo bridge. The first and the second bamboo bridge were washed away by the giant flood in 2004 and both of the bridges were reconstructed again after the flood. During the flooding season, the villagers in the remote area were cutting off from the outside world for more than a week!
