    Mini 2 travel log day 1 part 2

    Day 1 Part 2 Imagin waking in the morning (as I have done) to the sound of the waterfall and the birds and surrounded by nature - pure bliss, although the table can be a tad hard without a soft mattress. Nope- those were NOT kidney stones on the table! Take flight like an eagle and see the...
