Ok switch to this morning.  We slept in till about 9:30 am.  I showered with one of those showers that looks like the thing attached to your sink, on the floor right next to the toilet but didn’t really mind it because it was warm.  I was just wondering how this shower system worked. I can remember my father getting annoyed when I had left the floor outside the shower wet on one occasion.  I blame the rest on my brother.  Just kidding  Matt. 

Our area (And I’ll fill in the name later) was absolutely gorgeous and the most New York-esquse place I’ve seen in Asia.   So of course I had to photograph everything thus we ended up getting on the ferry about an hour to an hour and a half later than planned, if you could actually call anything we did planning.  I think this was only to our benefit – just have a look! I hope you enjoy the photos.

We walked around for maybe an hour or so taking a ton of pics and enjoying the scenery.  Tash probably would have killed me only she doesn’t own a camera (or a gun for the matter) and must be dependent upon moi for photographs.

Luckily we dawdled long enough to catch part of a parade rehearsal.  I believe the group was Portuguese.  Don’t be mislead by their skimpy outfits – it was frickin freezing outside!!
