Main Street

Main Street, originally uploaded by Robbi Baba.

Main Street of the 'bamboo village'. You can see the temple at the far end. My friend said until recently there were no motorized vehicles at all, now there are scooters. Every little compound was almost identical. The original tract neighborhood.
Except each compound had a garden and jungle, growing everything from coffee to pigs. In a word--sustainable.
I got a strong impression that this was a very good place to live. A tight knit community.
