The town is famous for the tubing. Getting an “In The Tube” tank top (singlet or vest for my Aussie and British friends) is a must for any backpacker. Though, the majority of the people I talked with hadn’t rented a tube. After renting a tube my first day, but not making it past bar 4 I didn’t rent a tube again until my last day. I vowed to make it all the way down the river. Or at least past bar 7.

I thought the river would be a little more crowded than it was. Since it’s the end of dry season the river was low and I had to do some nifty moves to navigate the rocks.

I had an awesome day on the river. I did two of the big slides, but the video didn’t record. Check out my video and pictures from the day.
