Day 30

Woke and did freestyle wrestling with Gaz. We learned double leg takedowns, a 2nd takedown off of the opponents defense, a 3rd takedown off the defense for the 2nd, and a 4th takedown off the defense for the 3rd. After that I slept a little and met up with some of the guys for lunch. Casey from Canada is having an oil painting done of his face on a bodybuilder's body wrestling a bull by the horns like the one in Dodgeball. Wish I'd thought of that. I went to the internet cafe and saw British Adam and his wife Jodi. Adam said our pictures were finally up on Tigermuaythai.com. I did the afternoon muay thai mostly with Mac and he continued showing me some clinch knee defenses and takedowns. We all went to dinner and Gary and I almost had a head on collision with another bike. Driving here is pretty much anything goes and I have had at least one close call everytime I have driven. This was definitely the closest. Motorbikes sometimes drive on the wrong side of the road here but usually they stay far enough to the left that you have time to stay out of the way. For some reason out of nowhere this guy was heading straight for us in the middle of the lane. I was going about 50km/h and he must have been flying because it was about two seconds from when we saw him to when we passed him. Gary said he was probably 5 or 6 feet in front of us when I got out of the way. The other driver didn't even move. This was the last weekend for alot of the people at the camp so after dinner we had a little party back at the camp and then took taxis to the Tiger Bar.
