Since we had the day to see the city so we went to another garden park (Budda) It was quite nice and had this beautiful painting of the history of Shozuo.
Doing my favorite thing, talking and acting in English to the people on the street to find what I am looking for. I am amazed at how many people we have been able to help us. This group actually took use back across the bridge to this place. We bought tickets for the next day.
The bike that took us to a place to find a bus for a trip. This is the one that we nearly ruined his tires with our weight.
