Tuk-tuk & Massage

I took my first tuk-tuk rides today. Previously for short trips I'd walked and for my temple touring I had a driver in a car.

It was certainly experience - quite slow, but I have absolutely no idea if there are any road rules that people obey. I was thinking about hiring a bike today, but I'm glad I didn't. I think I'd have been petrified at the first crossroads I came to.

My other interesting experience was a full body oil (ginger infused for muscle relaxation) massage. Pretty cheap and very good, and interesting because I've never had to get totally naked for a massage before (I had a towel for a degree of modesty). I did choose a place that was so far above board it was it was hovering in mid-air, but there are plenty of reports about massage places where all kind of 'extras' are for offer. Thankfully that wasn't an issue here!
