Rest Day

Tuesday 30th

My cold has really kicked in - didn't sleep well, all bunged up and felt chilli last night......poor me

Decided I needed some fruit for vitamins so went to find a stall at the side of the road near Lembang, but didn't want to walk too far.

Took some pics along the way





notice they drive on the left......plus the road looks better than our local ones in Oxfordshire!!


A lot of the vehicles have this sign - 'Bismillah' which we all know from 'that' song - meaning 'In the name of God, the merciful and compassionate'




and some video from outside my hotel - it can be tricky crossing the road :


Unfortunately my watch got water logged yesterday in the torrential rain 😓


Some of my fruit haul & avocados




and the stone Parasan showed me how to use to clean up silver - which gets tarnished a bronze colour from the sulphur fumes of the volcano - I think its solidified ash but I'm not sure. It breaks down into a paste with water and you can use it to polish the silver........

It works!
