Hello All!!!!! Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who respond. It keeps me going and it feels like I'm not as far away as I am. THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Back to our scheduled program! We decided to take a weekend excursion to this amazing place, Krabi. It's a little resortish but one longtail boat ride later are more resorts and unbelievable beauty!!! We can only get there by longtail boats and there are 2 beaches that need more boats to get there. We start the trip off with 6 of us. It took about 3 hrs ish to get by bus. Beware this bus did NOT come with a toilet. That equals bad news for this tiny tank beverage drinking fool! More about that later. We take a taxi to the bus station after purchasing many ... read more

So I have been getting a lot of the same Q & A, which I'm goinna answer them all here. I love this blog! Here we go... School to teach English started about less then 2 wks ago. I'm actually staying at teh school where others have opted to stay at a near by hotel for a little bit more cash. I have the same as them but no AC. I'm OK w/that just BK I'm only in my room at night and I have my own personal fan! I know I'm special...Yup Yup!!!!!!!!! So staying at the school which allows me to use this computer until I can figure out what's wrong with my computer. I'm in this busy town called, Phuket Town. It's not fukit town but rather pronounced poo-cet town. It's busy as ... read more

So I've told a few stories in defferent places but I dont think I said it here. It's for the weak. Here we go! I love toilets from around the world. All are so different that it keeps my mind curious like a kid. I feel like I'm in the candy store and cant wait to see the next toilet! Here comes the weak part. I cant flush toilet paper down the toilet because it's sensitive. I can handle that. I start noticing the sprayer that's usaully in the kitchen next to the sink that is now next to the toilet. WHat do you do with that? Here it is. I'm sitting in the internet cafe and realizing I have to go to the toilet. I cant make it back to my place so I asked ... read more

Two days into one entry. Maybe it'll be a long one but prob not. The pics are far more interseting than my bad grammar writing. Here we GO! Two days ago I decided to a bit more adventurous and go south for the day. It takes about 15 min of serious steep hills to get to the beach, Patong. On my way out of town almost to the bridge I have to stop to the Evacuation sign, it's a man climbing up. Funny! I have read of stories of how the Thai have moved far from the ocean since that day. I dont blame them. Thousands of people died on this island alone, not counting the other areas. So, next tsunami start slimbing up. At this bridge there are a bunch of colorful fishing boats, there ... read more

This is a good one. For those who know me understand that I love foreign toilets. I cant wait to see what it is they use all ove the world. I want to share it with you. This is too much fun! There's 3 different restrooms but all pretty much the same. Look for the sprayer! We went on the strip in this highly popular end of town called Hat Patong. This where anything you hear about in Thailand comes true!! Seriously! This is where the Thai girls corral anyone to their bar and try to convince them to buy them a drink, to looking down a long street full of Go Go Dancer stations on both sides so it's like a mirror and one word, the girl goes home with you if the price is ... read more
