Today we finally started to feel like ourselves again. Another guest here invited us to go to the temple on the mountain, a huge, ornate temple 20km above the city. His friend picked us up and we stopped for a delicious lunch in a garden restaurant. We got a bit car sick on the way up the mountain, but it was worth the trip. The temple was beautiful. Crowded too. After looking around, taking photos, being blessed, and having tea, we saw an elephant on the way out. Again motion sickness down the mountain. We returned to the guest house for a little siesta and then ventured out alone in a songtow (or red truck - cheapest public transit) to the Sunday Market. We saw lots of beautiful things but didn't buy (except for food and a 20 cent hello kitty purse for Jahri). We each got a 30 minute massage for $4 total. We took a tuk tuk (3 wheeled motorcycle with 2 seats in back) back to the guest house and now we are ready for bed. I start classes tomorrow so we need to get a good night's sleep. We are staying at the best guest house and all the other guests are great.
Dorothy should arrive tomorrow night. Hooray!
