The Temple

the other day i asked tim what he was up to the whole day. i renovate the temple he said. no way? way! ok i come up and help you i said. and i did. so he scraped wax and removed pigeon shit. than we painted 1st red and than gold. and the last 3 days we had even some nice people to help us - cheers!

3 layers of gold to make it look good

this is fat man (that is what he calles himself!) he helps the old monk to take care of the temple. every day he prepared a lot of food for us which was very nice :-)

they used fresh wood for the ceiling - now it is all twisted and the bird shit comes down. i tried with nails - that did not work. tim bought a power drill and screws - that was quite some work...

more or less done - still a lot to do for tim on the outside
