We set off on a run to the Burmese border but as we approach the border region and the first check point we are stopped and allowed no further, a sign of tensions, anyway our Thai border guard suddenly decides to become a tour guide and leads us off into the hills to visit some caves.
It was a bit of a climb, half an hour climbing up ladders and platforms made from vines and sticks tied precariously to the cliff face but eventually we reached the cave system and in the mouth of the cave are a number of 1500 year old coffins. just sitting there, they are set high up on stilts.
