We went textile crazy!

        Phew, what a day! We left at 8:00am got back at 7:30pm and must have stopped at 6 different villages throughout the day. Our mission was textiles and boy did we see some textiles. We were lucky enough to go to a few ikat weaving factories and see it all being done. It was amazing to see how much work was going into ikat fabrics. The steps seem endless but the result is so beautiful.The hills were something to behold with the striations of rice fields right down to the sea. Another lovely day...
