Sawadee Thailand!


I like this language, your grammar doesn't have to be perfect for sentences to make sense. We are at last in Chiang Mai which, if you don't know is in the northern part of Thailand. We flew from LAX to Bangkok for 18 hours with fully reclining seats, 3 huge meals and every amenity you could possibly want. Dave was " meal raped " once, this is where the flight attendent doesn't give you time to wake up but simply pulls out you tray and gives you food before you know what's happened.
Gary and Somsee were waiting for us at the airport and took us to their home just outside of the city. There are 5 dogs living here: Pepsi, Fanta, Cola, Mi and Soda who is the new edition. The house is very nice despite the presence of a 10 inch millipede which, Somsee promptly killed. We just got back from a restaurant called, Johnny Walker's where fried crickets and serpents are a part of the menu. There's a huge party going on down the road, but it's time for rest and relaxation.
