Day 16 1/23/10





I was able to sleep much better then last night which put me in a much better mood. Got on the scooter and headed to get some crappy french toast and iced coffee. The sun is so intense today. I feel it burning my face every time I peak my head out. Decided to go to the big temple that is close to my hotel. I wasn't expecting much which was probably a good thing, because I was pretty impressed with what i found. It was perched at the edge of the cliff and made for some amazing pictures. There were a bunch of monkeys trying to get some food out of the peoples. I don't know where some of these tourist come from. They are not staying or eating or eating anywhere I am, but as soon as i show up at the biggest tourist attractions I am surrounded by them. So loud and out of place, coated with white sun screen. Its pretty interesting watching them walk from photo-op to photo op taking the same pictures with the same pose. I don't understand it but I'm not as upset as I was the first week I was here. I was only there for about 45min. The sun was too hot to stay in it. I started driving down a few road I haven't driven down before and relaxed I had driven in a giant loop. So I headed back to the hotel to lay down a bit. Ended up having dinner and watching a movie at a warang which was a nice change of pace.
