Downtown 2

Apparently the uploading the first downtown post did not kill the internet… uploading to the blog appears slow, but it would seem to be easier than ordering flowers online or making a bank transfer - neither of which I have been successful with this evening. grr. I guess spending an hour trying to login to Nationwide will become normal after a while…

Anyway, here are a couple of photos of the Royal Lake. It is a nice place to have a walk as there are wooden boardwalks all around the edge and it is quite peaceful even though it is close to main roads. The only downside is that the climate means any walk is super sweaty and there is significant risk of drowning in torrential rainfall. Lesson #1 – in the rainy season ALWAYS carry an umbrella.

The large gold boat thingy is apparently a government owned restaurant. I wonder if it is equally lavish on the inside?!
