Day 137

TEA STALL OWNER PREPARING ME A CUP OF TEA.  His stand is 50 yards from Jeremy’s apartment, and half way between us and Charles’ place!  Sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and some tea are created to make this great drink.  Maybe 3 oz. for 6 cents!  It’s a rare day that I don’t have a cup of tea.  He is wearing a lungi, which is typically what I wear most days at home in the apartment.  They are quite comfortable during these 90+ degrees days!
