Thailand…One of My Favorite Places on This Blue Globe
For the Chinese National Holiday (October 1) Clifford gives us a week off. So, Jen and I headed south to the amazing country of Thailand…for a second time.
It was raining, so we decided to give Batik painting a try.
Mena (also our elephant from last year) decided to join our class.
Heading out on our safari. The sheen on my skin is bug spray. LOTS of mosquitos.

The monkeys turn the coconuts in circles until they break off the tree.

One of our favorite places to eat
Hard Rock Café, Shopping, and The Flood
The Canadian Restaurant on the Beach and the Crossing of the “Red Sea”
We got caught in high tide on the beach and had to cross a minor Red Sea. Keith tried wading up to his knees and then sank down to his waist. We searched for another way across through the bush then found another opening. I did great in my shorts until I sank too and a wave came. Jen got across unscathed, but then got soaked when a wave hit her on the beach. It was quite a laughter filled night.
Phuket Town-
filled with Temples and we heard the call to prayer
Random Italian restaurant Jen, Keith, and I found
