Trek Day - 19 Trek from Thangyani to Sukhetam
On 2nd Nov 2015 - After breakfast, we left Thangyani at 8:00AM and started trek through thick forests climbing up and down a bit staying mostly along the river.
We stopped for rest briefly at a Chang Shop before Amjilosa
One hour beyond Amjilosa ... near a Truss bridge crossing a stream
At 3:45PM we cross this long suspension bridge
After a long days walk we finally reached Sukhetam at 4:00PM. The Teahouses there were on nice location on a grassy meadow next to the river. It was indeed a very enjoyable and relaxing evening here at Suhetam .. to sit on the grassy-lawn drinking a cold beer .. after the many days of long walks!
We relax after the long days walk .. with bottles of cold
San Miguel Beer ... Paul and Bill of our hiking team

We are nearing Amjilosa at 9:45AM ... but still way ahead
We pass a home in Amjilosa village at 10:30AM
Passing a village Cane-hut (at 1:50PM) .. two kid brothers peering out of the door .. watching our party of trekkers with curiosity!
We reach Sukhetam at 4:00PM ... on a grassy meadow by the river ... with decent Teahouses and shops selling stuff including beer.
Robbie smiles for my camera .. as he enjoys his beer
