Today we went on a what turned out to me a mini hike with our host family! A few classes ago one of my adult students told me about a waterfall that is very beautiful, just outside of town; but it is too far to ride a bus and walk so our family went today! It was a short drive and then when we got there we parked where everyone else did but after a 15-20 walk up a steep road we realized we could have driven up the road and then walked the remaining short distance to the waterfall. There were stairs that took us right to the base of the waterfall. Along the stairs there were a couple temples with very good smelling incense burning! It was beautiful! The waterfall is kinda small this time of year because it doesn't rain very much and because of the heat too. We had a fun time. Then on the way down we took a path and sat on a big rock and enjoyed some snacks that we had bought before we left.
After we got back, Krista and I walked to EMart because we are cooking chicken parmesan tonight for our family. As we were getting to EMart we ran into one of my adult students, Susan, and her son Daniel (also my student). She invited us to join her as Daniel got his hair cut. And after she bought us a deep fried-dipped octopus snack (which was interesting) and we went to my favorite coffee shop, Coffee Jigi, where she also treated us to Pot bing su (the shaved ice, rice cake, milk and bean dessert). It was very delicious and turned out to be a fun afternoon! We are going to start the dinner soon! I hope I can make the chicken good in the frying pan!
