12:30pm i woke up from a nap. i really needed to pee. i was told we passed the last gas station while i was asleep. oh dear. we still had an hour and a half left! i told the driver to keep his eyes peeled for a good secluded place for me to go. luckily, he was hungry, we were hungry, and he knew this place we could eat at that had a bathroom. to quote chet, it certainly wasn't the shangri la but it did the trick. my eyes have seen and my nose has smelled quite a variety of bathrooms living here. family, i have come a long way from our china trip. ("i am a lady!")
1:30pm as we got closer to mt. dempo (just past pagar alam city center) where we would be staying, the countryside was so beautiful i couldn't believe it.
the driver was playing really insane rave music the whole time which in a way somehow added to the beauty of the scenery. the air was clear and the temperature was very cool and pleasant as we ascended up the mountain towards a massive storm cloud.
we arrived at villa dempo at 2:00pm. we checked in and went up to our three bedroom villa nestled in a enormous plot of cabbage (i was in heaven. i love cabbage) at a great price (only $35 USD a night for the entire villa) the quaint yellow cottage overlooked all of pagar alam and its tea plantations. it was a sight to see.
What is this? |
