freeeezzzzing...

Today the rain did stop which was good, so we decided to take a walk down the mountain. The scenery is beautiful, we are so glad we came here, it is really special. A very cute fishing Island bustling with people, restaurants and market stalls. Today for lunch we went into a eating place that had no English writing, obviously not promoting westerner to dine, but that did not stop us. They placed a menu on the table that had pictures which was good, along with a pot of tea and a bowl of boiling water...as I poured my tea a lady from the another table stopped me and began to show me, the bowl of boiling water was to wash all your dishes before you drink or eat from them! I must say we had the best meal at this place, best bbq pork and vegies (+other meals) all for  less than $30. I went down with thongs and a light shirt, Alex was also freezing, we had 2 goals - eat, which we had done, and shoes & jumper for me, and something to keep Alex warm...my feet were so thankful for the $3 shoes and cosy jumper and Alex so happy with his beanie it made all the difference. We had fun today...this is a very peaceful place, so clean, and the kids (& us) had a great time at the park.
