Lots of catching up to do with the blogs! After I left you last, it was Friday morning. I left the internet cafe in search of a new book to read, a pack of cigarettes, and food. I found only the cigarettes ($2.80 a pack for Marlboros, didn't try the Thai ones because they looked iffy), but I did run into something even more amazing. Down the road there is a school (7th graders to 12th graders). It... Read Full Entry

I love to travel... when I have the time and money! Both are hard to come by and can so easily be wasted. My boyfriend and I try to plan a big trip (international and two weeks or longer) every 2 to 3 years. We have been to Italy, Ireland, and Thailand. I wish we waited to go to Thailand because now I have no desire to go anyplace else but there :)... full info

Songkran is my favorite Thai holiday
When my wife and I lived in Chiang Mai in 1974-75 we especially enjoyed the Songkran festival. I hope you were able to go to the Ping River to see the lotus floats that produced a river of fire. Also, papaya is pretty good if you squirt some fresh lime juice on it. Sorry about the mangoes and sticky rice being out of season, although some places do a pretty good job of keeping mangoes refridgerated so that there is still some available well beyond the normal end of the season. Mangoes and sticky rice is my favorite dessert.

Thank you for your comment! I finally did find some mango and sticky rice at the Sunday Walking Street and it was AMAZING. I will definitely try the lime juice on the papaya. I think it is a bit bland so that shoud help. Thanks again for reading me :)
