The problem with the bus is that every thing on the street just goes by in a blur. Riding a bike slows everything down — just now so slow as walking. Amanda and I rented bikes today, despite our fear that we would get hopelessly lost.
It turned out to be one of the best things we've done while here. It was fun to weave among the people on the sidewalks, peeking into the stores we passed.
After swinging through a temple where there were hundreds of statues with about a dozen arms, we headed to a shrine. It is perched on a hillside, among narrow streets filled with shops. It took us awhile to get there considering all the distractions.
Lesson learned: Do the shopping on the way back.
