While exploring at the jungle-temple, looking for Angelina Jolie, instead I came across this old woman with a gentle smile sitting amongst the stones. She was dressed in the white of a female Buddhist nun and holding out a small string towards me. So I held out my hand and she tied the string around my wrist while reciting some prayers and blessings. She was a charming and real delightful discovery amongst the rocks and the ruins. The strings are supposed to be left on until they fall off of their own accord. So instead of a tomb-raider I found a tomb-blessing instead... all in all I think I made a great discovery....
