...Oops, gettin' a little behind here!
... down that river for about an hour to the village. The breeze was heavenly and for that one hour.....we actually didn't sweat....at least until we stopped! I know that sounds a little gross, but it is such a fact of life here that it has become a non-issue. Can't imagine that I have one old cell left in my body any more. They've all been dripped- or poured - out!

Long Necks and Mud Angels
... enough little town, but nice enough is not what we are after. It is not buzzing. We need a little more spark than this (especially at this end of our trip). For Si it was the walk to Fish cave this morning that ended him. Again a nice enough walk through some lovely manicured lawns, to a big pond underneath a curved rock (difficult really to justify the word cave). Not really edgy travel - but we could justify to ourselves that we were ...
