I can't believe I am halfway through my volunteering experience! On Friday, we spent the day at the pool, swimming and cooling down. It was nice to have Steph back from the elephant sanctuary so we all caught up with how her week went. After a run around the park and some dinner, we got ready to give Sarah her send off.
On Saturday morning, for her return home to Australia, we went to get pedicures. This was an interesting experience. We enjoyed watching some Thai tv and sitting on a comfy sofa (no sofas in our house), while the beauticians pampered our feet. Sarah had managed to grow her nails so wanted to show them off with a nice French manicure. However, the beauticians were not able to understand Sarah's request. I had to demonstrate with a nail file to show them, but it was still a challenge. They were very sweet though and tried their very best. After scrubbing and polishing, we had gorgeous, clean ladylike feet again! Sarah also had pretty hands.
The temperatures had really soared up in the last week and we had highs of 39 degrees some afternoons. As you can imagine, we were not keen to leave the house. An FRIENDS marathon before Sarah's departure and then a funny film to cheer us up once she had left.
Sunday was spent doing lots of trip planning and some household tasks, in preparation of a new week ahead.
