A pleasant day

We took Danny and Cliff to Nan pu tuo to have a pleasant Sunday afternoon. We had good weather, unlike last week when we sweat nearly to death. Daniel had the camera this day and he had fun with the camera. So I'll just post the pictures.






 Don't pay attention to the fat Americans - just look at the cute Chinese girl - that is Selena. She is Daniel's assistant and we love her! She is so much fun and such a happy person. We did the peace thing because it's the Asian thing to do. I think it's genetic.
 This symbol, especially when in gold, means Buddha. It's carved into the stone.
 That's Danny and Selena going up the staircase.


These women were using a treadle machine to sew clothing for the monks. We used a translation app to ask them and then they tried to talk to us in Chinese. We said we didn't speak Chinese and they were talking and laughing. They didn't want me to take their picture so I stepped back and used the zoom. Sneaky?

Then we went to the pond in front of the temple and checked up on the terrapins there.
They were piling themselves pretty high on this door.
 There was one that looked stuck because none of his 4 feet could touch the guy below him.
There was a pile on the right corner and then the bottom guy decided he was done and took the ones on top of him off with him.
It was a good Sunday.

After this we went for Mango Ice.
Guess what? Come back tomorrow!! You knew that was coming though, didn't you?
