This morning our sleep was only broken by the chanting of a group of monks walking by for the morning offerings. We got up late but it looks like everyone else got up around that time as well. After breakfast we saw tourists sitting down to breakfast in front of Friends TV. It still weirds me out.

We rented a motor bike and went to the Organic Farm. The farm is a community that raises organic fruits, vegetables, mulberry trees and goats. I guess they also raise silkworms but we didn't visit that part. They've also built a community center where kids can come for classes in English, sewing, music, etc. I wanted to visit because I needed an antidote to the disgusting aspects of tourism so prevalent here.

It started to rain. We walked to the goat houses and visited the goats who seemed very happy to have visitors. Many of the trees were labeled: durian, guava, star fruit. There were also pineapples. The farm had a calm location by the side of the river. Kids splashed and swam in the water. The peace, however, was marred by a tubing place cranking loud music with annoying people swinging into the water-- party party!
