Later that day..

Incredible storm this afternoon…. Used my time wisely researching where to eat this evening … chose Pi vegetarian restaurant near the war remnants museum about a 20 minute walk away. Headed out post storm into cooler but more densely polluted air. The pollution is so bad that you can taste it and all your bogies are black… grim!  Despite this we plod on playing dodgems as the bikes mount the pavements at rush hour rather than wait for the lights to change. At one interchange riders had to turn their wheels to make a gap for us to squeeze through as we tried to cross the road. Crazy! Anyway eventually found the restaurant ..it was closed so went across the road to another vegetarian restaurant, Hum,  only find it’s closed on a Monday! So we retraced our steps and found the vegan restaurant we’d spotted on our way called, in translation, The Loving Wife! Had a great dinner of fragrant rice and spicy vegetable dishes 🌶
Sitting on the terrace now listening to the sounds of the city and feeling happy to be here.
