Be careful of the monkey!

Today I went on a tour with a few Of the folks from our build team. At the first Hindu temple monkeys ran about, one stole the sunglasses off the hat of a woman in our group! Luckily some kid ran after him with a stick and somehow for it back. 
A view of the temple. Our guide shared some interesting information about Hinduism, we weren't allowed to enter the worship area but the view was great.
For lunch we visited another beach where we picked out our meal from these bins of fresh seafood. I shared a red snapper with Susan, a fellow social worker from Maine. She's a hoot, reminds me of grandma.
Another guy from our team who came along was a world religion major with a focus on SE Asia, he said this was Rama and his side kick from the Ramayana.
Tonight we met the whole team, there are 25 of us. It's an interesting group with people from all over the US, all ages and personalities, should make for an interesting time. We leave for Lovina tomorrow, and will visit the 3 houses were working on.
