Tandas anyone?

Today was a good day for us to get our schedule updated, make some more plans for our Tin Mine staff Workshop, and get caught up (March 1, 2013). I still can't believe that they literally eat 5 -6 meals a day here. Nearly everything is cooked in coconut milk it seems too. I guess that makes sense since they are the biggest exporter of coconut oil as well. Something else I experienced for the first time this trip:  Asian toilets, "tandas" in Malay. More commonly known to us westerners as "squat toilets".

A lot of places we have been working have both styles now (as thankfully our hotel does), but since in the past the squats were more common, the bathroom at our office has these instructions. For your viewing pleasure. . .
Assignment is also already half complete, it is really going so quickly. Not much down time to absorb the amount of experiences on a daily basis. Tonight we are headed on our ABV Weekend away, a resort of some type North of Kuantan. The whole team is excited and looking forward to it, hope I can take a minute and digest it all. . .
