Day 2 of our Wild Women Adventure was a full one. We started by spending three hours at Fa Lana Spa, where we had three full hours of spa treatments. The foot massage, Thai massage and aromatherapy massage were the treatments I chose with each treatment lasting one hour. The treatments were far superior than anything I ever experienced elsewhere. It was an extremely rejuvenating experience.
We dined at a local vegetarian restaurant before getting in a songtaew (Thai taxi...looks like a small truck) which took us to a hiking trail.
A 30 minute hike up a hill led us to a beautiful temple. Here, our Thai guide told us a bit about Buddhism and monastic life. We then piled in our songtaew again and drove further up the hill to visit another temple where we listened to monks chanting. Fortunately we were able to take pictures and explore the premises.
The city was extremely busy and so it took us much longer than it normally would to get to our restaurant for dinner. We were served a delicious vegetarian meal and even though everyone was exhausted our stomach's were definitely full as we again boarded the songtaew and headed for the hotel.
We will be hiking in the jungle for the next couple of days and will be without power. Therefore it will be a couple of days before I post again.
