On Sunday we went on a guided walk around the Senaru area, our guide was one of the women from a local village who has learnt English and been trained as a tour guide.
We stopped off at a few traditional villages on the way with their straw huts. The villagers practice a form of Islam different from muslims and includes teenage girls having their top teeth filed down so they are in a straight line as it is supposed to be more beautiful.
We walked through the rice paddies and tried several tropical fruits from the trees and saw cashew nuts and tried some chocolate fruit which was very nice but not like the chocolate bars we are used to.
A highlight of the walk was going through the jungle to a couple of beautiful waterfalls and having a cooling swim in one of them.
A hot but enjoyable day.
