This was a day for seeing temples. We drove for hours in a bus to a temple that had over 600 stairs to get to the top. We had to take off our shoes at the bottom and walk up in our stocking feet. It was exhausting. The temple at the top had naked men walking around because they have given up all personal items and concentrate on praying. There was a tall stone figure of a man. They wash it every so many years with different colored items. Then we had to walk back down. I definitely got my exercise today.
We stopped at a beautiful restaurant for lunch. We were so happy to have a clean bathroom available. The lunch was very good. We left and traveled on very rough roads for a very long time to two more temples. The detailed carvings were amazing. It took 1000 men over 100 years to complete the second temple we saw. Bouncing around on the bus ride got me a little car sick. We ended the tour at the Institute for a picture.
It was Gene's 38th birthday so we went back to The Road for more dancing. Harvey took a ride on a motorcycle and took a spill. He got a few scrapes on his hands, arms, and face. We couldn't believe it.
