I woke up this morning and crossed the road to buy some breakfast. Not much choice so ended up with a chocolate loaf. Cheaper than chips and wasn't to shabby. I them came back to the hotel and arranged a private car! He took me to see the Marble temple first which was great! I lasted longer in the heat than the driver expected, but couldn't bare 38 degrees for more than 45mins. I then asked the driver to take me to the river where I jumped on a boat for a hours...

We even got to chat to the owner who has reached the summit of Everest twice! It was amazing to pick his brains. He even explained how he wasn't excited when he got to the top.
