the next day it was up to the mountain! and ladies and gentlemen this was my favorite place ever: a cafe on a cliff with so much health-food-hippie-styling-beautiful-foggy-weather-STUFF that i almost died i was so happy. and then it started raining. so i did die of happiness.
the view from the balcony of the cafe (it was all outdoors on the balcony)
the garden on the hill alongside the cafe (someone lived underneath-!!!!! awsome)
more view
the other part of the cafe where people who wanted actual walls sat
view of beautiful plants
stoopid brother is unimpressed
but even he can't ruin my happiness!!!!!
BECAUSE IT'S BEAUTIFUL
