While in Thailand, we visited an Aquatic Development Farm. Which is a nice way of saying Fish Farm.
We all had the chance to catch fish and take eggs out of the female fishes' mouths. As well we transferred
around 7000 fish to different ponds. While all had the chance to catch fish......not all took that chance.
So those that didnt, got the opportunity to wash dirty fish nets. Catching fish is not an easy thing,
and injuries are inevitable. So we ended up with some slices on our hands and feet! But if was fun..
...Well....at least i enjoyed it!

The ponds (there are 40 in total) with fish nets in them.Obviously inside the fish nets, are the fish.
The Crystal Clear pool of life. This is a natural spring at the top of a little mountain. The water
ran down a little river and over some limestone rocks and then eventually over a waterfall.
We had the opportunity to play in the waterfall and on the limestone rocks! mmm it was fun!
