I had trouble sleeping last night, waking up at 2.45 and eventually getting up to put in the previous posting. I did eventually drop off again and got up for breakfast about 8.15. 4 of my friends were there and I dug into the complimentary breakfast with a serve of scrambled eggs, bacon etc followed by fresh fruit. I then took the photos of the hotel in the previous post, returned to the room, got connected and did an upload.
By then it was 10 and we all headed off to the Jetujak markets. WE took the underground which is very modern, clean and high tech. It was B39 for the trip. The markets are where the locals shop and cover clothes, hardware, craft and food amongst other things. It was supposedly not overcrowded by normal standards.
I only bought a pair of tie pants and a hand sewing machine but the others did much more shopping for grand kids etc. The guys went back early and we stayed till about 3 before catching a taxi back. Three of us girls then went for a foot massage which was quite relaxing although she found a few painful spots. We went to a less salubrious place upstairs lying on mattresses rather than the chairs of the posher places but we also got a back and neck massage as part of the deal, and all for only $10 equivalent.
On the way out, Kellie had a word with the front desk and now my internet is complimentary. Always good to have a travel agent along with you.
