I started the day at Santa Rosa Mercedes. I ended the day at Harbin Hot Springs.

Here is a short description of the day:

too long at the Mercedes dealer, drive to Harbin

Here is a short description of the evening:

If you've ever thought that new-agey folks are secret authoritarians, a trip to Harbin will confirm your darkest thoughts. The lovely hippie chick at the gate found no record that I paid my ticketm which I did last time. after 5 minutes on the phone with The Office I was allowed to proceed, although the ticket is still on my record. So, a little something for me to clear up before I come again. AAARGH!!

The damp but warmish weather was perfect for soaking. I thought it would be deserted, but it was quite crowded for an Ecstatic Dancing conference :) The dance was fun, everything was fun, no more negative experiences after I got past the guardians of the gate - geez.

Missed breakfast, so I relaxed till noon then went to the lodge and used my cup and my teabag and their hot water for a yummy green tea and kind bar, which hit the spot perfectly.

Story for today: Car fixin, Move helpin, Bird watchin, Parking lot sleepin.
