Gotta have faith

I can't believe I forgot to mention the best part of my whole day!

After paying and thanking my tuk tuk driver for driving me swiftly back to my hotel after my grueling day at the hospital, and happily re-entering my home away from home, it was 10 minutes before I felt a huge sickening wave of realization hit me.

I had left my prescription medicine that had taken 5 hours to get in the back of the tuk tuk. I hurried back to the reception desk just hoping against hope that I was wrong and I had left it on the desk. But I knew. As I was desperately trying to explain my pitiful position to the receptionist, and I could feel the pathetic exhaustion start turning into tears, I heard the sound of a small engine, like a lawnmower, growing louder. My heart practically leapt with joy as I turned to see the tuk tuk pull up infront of the hotel. MY tuk tuk! I ran out to express my gratitude and relief in heaping amounts as I collected my precious cargo. No problem, he said with a smile as he hopped back on and drove away.

So there you go. Have a little faith in your tuk tuk driver.
