We did not do too much today.  Spent most of the day working on our journals and sorting out our bags.  It was a hot and sunny day, so it was best to stay in the shade anyway.  Took a break at midday to go change some money.

After dinner we walked the short way down to the dusty main street to have a drink in the cafe.  It was actually quite a nifty place.  They had tables set-up around a courtyard and they built a huge fire in the center.  The only problem was that whenever they threw some additional wood on the fire, the intense heat became unbearable.
