Day 3

So 3:30am finds you anywhere. I guess I could find that comforting in a sick way. Started the day officially with a run around the lake. This time we were fortunate to come across the older ladies exercise class early enough that they encouraged us to join in just as the massage congo line was forming. Progressively slapped, rubbed and chopped the back in front while someone did the same to me, after 10 minutes or so we turned around, repeated and did the same to the person now in front. The ladies could not have been kinder, but for the one who would not touch Kate and forced her to a different spot in the line. We had a legit massage later, with major grime exfoliation. No modesty here, as Kate said, I've never had my chest massaged like that before, or glutes. Went to the Temple of Literature transported on the back of a motor bike. While in the city, the Temple was peaceful and beautiful compared to the energy of downtown Hanoi, which has been amazing. Flew to Siem Reap, Cambodia this afternoon. We'll spend a few days here at the Temples of Angor. It is small village like here, but growing rapidly. Much warmer as well, high 80's. Internet cafe at .50 and hour so we'll manage to swing getting on daily. off for dinner and sunscreen. Sue

  4. Massage conga--I think we need to add that to Ripped! You two are doing the travel thing right. can't imagine how much adventure you will pack in at this rate. I really wish I was there but look forward to reading every entry. It's down right balmy in Burlington... in the high 30's and the sun came out for over 20 minutes up at Bolton yesterday! Have a great time. Oh and it's me, not Jackson, following.
