Self study days = reading, mini-quizzes, and time to have an adventure. 
Adventure 1. Ze Epic Walk
~1.5 miles of walking along a road filled with trucks, cars, and motos with jungle on the other side. Here's what we saw at the next town along the road:
|  | 
| A police boat that was tossed ~2 km upland from the beach during the 2004 tsunami. Crazyyy | 
|  | 
| Small shrine with a potbellied guardian | 
|  | 
| Deep-fried grasshopper? FOR DINNER? (it tasted buggy...) | 
|  | 
| Wheels spinning in the sky | 
|  | 
| Pastry-covered hot dogs on a stick | 
|  | 
| Rhys unimpressed with grasshopper and mealworm | 
|  | 
| Mealworms om nom (they tasted like chips...) | 
|  | 
| George and chicken (it wasn't was spicy as it looks, thank goodness) 
 | 
 And a carnival celebrating the 9-day vegetarian Buddhist holiday going on right now:
 
"Pastry-covered hot dogs on a stick." You would.
ReplyDeleteProps on the adventurous eating though!
