Our current home away

Layers of beauty abound. Discovering how to do nothing--sometimes challenging for my western mind. This life of leisure is something that just takes time. Today I got up around 9, took a cold shower, did some yoga and was beginning to meditate when Paul announced he was hungry. What's new, right? Ok, it was almost 11:30, guess I can't argue with that--it was lunch time. We hiked up the deserted 2-lane highway walking on the shady side of the road. Once we hit the small town, we found a roadside eatery where mom (someone's mom) was roasting chicken wings (one of our favs). The smell always captures us. Paul asked about fresh coconuts to drink and she pointed him down the street. Another score! Not wanting to be a western nuisance, I quickly ordered up a cold Chang. Nothing like a beer first thing in the morning. Why not? It's like water, anyway. We ordered up a bowl of noodle soup, some grilled chicken, and Som Tam, the spicy papaya salad that is super tasty. So far, it's been a lovely, breezy day.
