Breakfast seems to be included in the price of most hotels. Today's breakfast was great and we got to try a jaffle for the first time. Pretty close to what we would call a toasted sandwich!
First stop this morning was the tour office but the lady who runs it is sick so I used the friendly man's phone at the hotel to book up a tour through another office. Next stop, the Blue Lagoon!
This is the name given to a beach not far away with some good snorkelling. The sand was white, the sea was blue .... but one word really sums up the scene, 'plastic'! Lost flip flops, plastic bags, polystyrene and bottles in their masses. The bay appeared to collect rubbish and no one ever cleans it up! A real shame as the beach was wonderful.
After the beach we had lunch in a local restaurant. One of the dishes was a little different to the fried rice, fried eggs and fried noodles usually available. It was like a tomato curry and tasted divine!
The afternoon was spent relaxing and doing a little research on the foreign office website.
After it was dark we ventured out and found a street hawker selling a type of savoury pancake. It tasted great but the chillis he'd added had super powers!
