Day two

Today we stopped at spice/herbal garden. There's a potion and a lotion for everything! Started with hot chocolate made with banana essence. Facials for all, hair removal cream, energy tonic, back and neck/head massages. Jeepers we're going to look stunning in 2015!




Then we stopped at jewellery factory. I am now new owner of blue sapphire earrings!


Then we stopped and kids got small placards with names and pictures on. Very clever.
