In The Garden of Life - Part 2


Dam power cuts...

We grabbed a quick coconut and Rob got some fresh figs! They were bloody gorgeous! We head in town,


journey takes about 30mins…






The suns blazing.... and the scooter is hot maaan!

I burnt my ass earlier jumping back on it after coconut break.

Better park up for a pit stop!


Jamia

Masjid

Mosque


After our ride through hectic weekend

traffic we grab some Allah time…























Its a reflective hour in the cool and tranquil atmosphere of the mosque….




After such enlightening stuff our souls are full... now its time for our body's.


We grab some fresh melon

juice and tasty hot samosa at one of the stands near by… 5rups for each…. that’s about 20p…

So screw you Walkers! … snackings cheap and dam healthy here… but always ask fresh…20mins in the sun after cook ..no good…

Be good to your guts….. be good to your bandha








Onward to a fairly big boring church… also a bit of a tourist trap… strictly no pictures in this church.. lol strictly no people in my face selling stuff... two rules broken...

reap.... sow....


As soon as jumping of scooty we got hassled by a guy selling incense… It was weekend and it was pretty quiet here tourist wise so we got full force……

Bee City Central!!!!


Haggling incense man persisted....price went from 50 to 10 in about 10minutes… I didn’t even haggle just said no 1000times.….We did buy some pineapple to munch as we walked around… it was sprinkled with a slightly salty chilli powder…well weird at first but well nice after a bit…

Church was just a church to mad dogs and English men so while Rob meditated, I took some pics of not church stuff…

.

Anyone seen the toilet???


We headed back via the

prison..


Strange but true....
