The Search for Buddha

One day Nikki and I decided to go on a hike and look for Buddha. We saw these little Korean ladies, and they told us to follow them. It was hard to keep up with them at times, but they fed us some oranges and told us to keep going.


We walked and walked and walked. We stacked some rocks for good luck. Nikki wasn't sure it would work, but I knew we had to try. And then we walked some more.


A few hours later we saw a monk. We followed her and she led us to a temple.


We knew we were getting close. I was happy.


But then we just saw more and more temples. We were starting to get nervous.


We asked this little old lady to say a prayer from us, but neither of us had much faith since the other old ladies had led us so far astray.


And then we saw him!!!


We were both very happy!

Love the story, im not sure thats exactly how it went but close enough.... I think you left out that we hiked up a mountain for 2 hours and nearly died(at least I nearly died). Just to find out we had hiked the wrong way up a mountain we didn't even need to go up. Good times!
