This Saturday we had a leadership training course from a former member of the Thai military. The course was relatively elementary compared to all of the leadership stuff that I have been involved with from high school to the Greek Community. He gave a lecture for most of the morning and then we went to a Thai military base. At the base we went through an obstacle course. Most of the stuff on the course was pretty easy for the group. We had to climb over walls, go through tunnels, and do a rope swing. The funnest thing we did at the base was a thing they use to simulate a parachute drop. They strapped us in a harness and attached us to a cable that was strung from the tower we were at to a field about 200 yards away. The tower was about forty feet in the air. They hooked us up and then you jumped out and zip lined down the cable. It was pretty fun.
Sunday I didn't feel very good. I felt like I might be getting the flu. Not the best thing to get in a country that is absolutely paranoid about Swine Flu. They will quarantine you if they think you have it. I'm pretty sure its just a stomach thing now. Not the most comfortable thing but I don't think I'm in any danger of dying anytime soon.
