As every day we wake up in the first lights, still exhausted by the efforts of the day before.
We distinguish finally this village where we slept but where, by arriving at night, we did not have time to discover.
Just after the breakfast, everybody is ready to leave in the direction of the Highlands.
It is early in the morning but most of the people are already working in the fields and we leave a quite empty village.

After a few hours we discover a beautiful and peacefull river...it is already moist and hot, so we stop to have a good bath...we are not too much in a hurry today, we take our time.
During this time the carriers continued the road, taking little beforehand to find us a "local fuel" which, according to their own statements, is going to help us to walk a little faster!!
It is in fact a local rum made with sugar cane and with maceration of bark of tree.
Not being really persuaded that this drink will have on us the expected effects, we only drink a little, promising to droink more in the evening.
Once more, as soon as we leave the cultivated areas, we quickly find the first orchids.
Polystachia tsinjoarivensis et Calanthe sylvatica
This time it is not a snake which cross our road, but a really big frog!!
Finally this day of walking was rather short and it is in the afternoon that we arrive at our third camp, what allows us to relax a little by having a nap or by relaxing us in a very cool river
The evening ended around a fire, with some rum and songs... very pleasant!!
