Day 95, 96, 97: Selin's House Day 1, 2, and 3

Monday November 11 - Wednesday November 13
What happens when you offer long distance cycle tourists somewhere to stay for a week? Well, in our case, you don't go outside for three days!!!  I know this might seem really strange. But, the reality is, we spend all of our time outside. The novelty really is being able to stay inside! We don't have to worry about wind, rain, or cold! Then, there are couches for sitting on, and beds for sleeping in. A sink for washing dishes. Running water!!! That can be made hot. A stove that doesn't require matches, priming, or regular fuel refills. Gasp! An oven. Quick, lets roast a chicken. It all feel a little surreal, but that could also be the pink walls. 

While we were idle in body, we were very active in the mind, route mapping, blogging, researching and re-connected with people back home. Inconceivably, three days were gone in the blink of an eye. The passage of time is such a funny thing.
