AMAZING STUFF Avalon!!! Happy New Year to you =) I'm sorry for all the "bad days" sucks that you keep getting your bike stolen, but I hope that's your biggest problem there. The food looks amazing, I'd be concerned for the sodium intake though!! I went to the hot pot, "littleQ" it opened by us in Archstone (we have to got here when u come visit unless ur sick of asian food by now) and i felt as if i got enough sodium to last me for a year. haha I'm so jealous that you got to spend the day with an elephant, and the massage must have been amazing. I def wanna go to Thailand one day =) Glad to see your enjoying your time and hope you have a nice visit from the parents =)!! miss ya lots!

OMG...
Glad to read you tried dog! I wanted to while in Thailand. BUT seeing a paw in the dish would have been difficult. Wow...paw. I think I'd also draw the line on that one (after a couple bites). Love reading your blog, Anthony in California

I suppose it would be foolish to ask whether you wear a bike helmet....or even why you choose to learn to read mountain goat, as opposed to, say, toilet or emergency exit, or even free food.

Amazingly brave adventurer
Your mum sent me the link to your blog and I've spent ages reading all of it. What an incredible experience: well done! Nash thinks that mould, the toilet and the dead dog are eeeuewww disgusting but would like to see closeups. Also quite confused because you aren't either of the girls we went camping with. Tr the lights off and the quiet voice before you shout yourself hoarse. Three-year-olds are monsters.

i owe you an e-mail but for now...
sounds like an awesome time, had i known it was this easy to comment, i would've on your previous ones. this tickled me quite a bit, "Finally paddled my own bamboo raft around a pond while chinese people took pictures of me." i think you should get a couple of friends who like to wear suits and sunglasses, have them walk around you and say "no pictures please" in chinese and see what kind of celebrity the chinese think you are.

At some point upon your return I would recommend practicing using full sentences again. Those who speak english appreciate the rest of the sentence :) As always enjoying reading about your adventures and thinking secretly I'm glad they're happening to you/
