uh oh..
what a way to end the post! (and the trip)! my conscience was suddenly marred by the sound of thai wedding bells and visions of you guys in white linen and eyelet, barefoot and tan, with your smiling thai wedding planner... I'll drink to that! (after I push out this baby boy in T-minus 3 weeks...) :):)

Mark, I really can't wait to see you in your new dresses! So glad you two did this trip and are taking full advantage of the local fare. I also cannot wait to see you stateside for some local fare and spring cycling.

Mark, since i know you upload the pics and Leighanne writes the words, take note of this: "It would be a perfect place to get married. " i think she is hinting at something.

So True !
I love it, this is so true- :-) every single word in this text is accurate ! it is exactly how it is ; in fact, if somebody had not pushed us across the road, Kim and I would be still waiting on the sidewalk for the traffic to open.

living vicariously
As all the rest have said - sounds like a blast. I an envious of the adventures sitting here at my desk (although I do have a fantastic view of the Olympic mountains today...) - and I can't wait to get the complete story. Hope you got a video of one of the motorbike rides?!

You are lucky you took the slow boat
Hey Guys, Love the letters, wish I was there; hahaha. Anyways, it is a good thing that you took the slow boat, as I am sure you saw the fast boats make your van ride look like a safe and enjoyable time. When Anna and I were there they said that something along the order of 1 tourist a month dies taking the fast boats up and down the river. And I am sure you can see why. Be safe and don't do what I would Sawan

?borders?
I've come to realize crossing borders is like bidding at an auction for peaces of mind.

What fabulous colors and photos. I especially like the monks' feet and their orange robes. The stack of market scarves looks hard to resist.

Good Sign...
Check with the locals, but in many cultures, getting shat on is a good sign! Blessings...

Serenity Now! Costanza in the marketplace.
George would be proud, you pulled the walk away. It didn't work so, "George is getting mad!" But nice job on the return at closing time. She doesn't want to haul that stuff home, she wants you to! When you dine on the streets and amongst locals, you really should try my new style of ordering when language is the definite barrier. Instead of pointing to the picture of what looks good on the menu, or pointing to the item that includes the most words you seem to recognize, look for a fellow patron eating something that looks good and just point to their food! This was a successful strategy at a lunch stand near the Tokyo fish market last fall. (Successful at making me look like the tourist boob that I was!) 2 feet of snow back here in Upstate, New York. Enjoy the tropics! Oh, if you see some decorative cotton (not silk, these must be functional for blowing el schnozzo) handkerchiefs, haggle for me, I'm good for it. DD

haggling & Ram Dass
haggle rule #1. NEVER give your opening price until you make the other guy comes down TWICE from his opening price. And, of course, you always want the other guy to think he's in control by allowing him to name the first price, which is really meaningless. What do the monks think about Ram Dass?
