A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. Not perfect — there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect — but it didn't take much away from the rest.

A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. Not perfect — there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
The walk down to the double-decker root bridge, which our captain paced so we stopped where we wanted rather than where the schedule said. Not perfect — the hotel on the first night was a clear step below the rest of the trip — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
Swapping the raft for bicycles on day six, which broke up the trip perfectly. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.

The walk down to the double-decker root bridge, which our captain paced so we stopped where we wanted rather than where the schedule said. Not perfect — rain closed the Nongriat path and we lost the root bridge day entirely — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
