I just spoke to your sister and sounds like you were a genuine florence nightingale flying all the way to London to look after her! Thanks for the memories of Vietnam - I never did make it to Laos - sounds like an error on my part!

You don't knw me ... .... but I know your sister and she sent me your blog - brings back lots of fab memories of my travelling days in Thailand. Have fun and don't think too much otherwise you'll miss life as it passes you by ;-)
So good... Kathleen, I am so happy that you are finally doing this. I look forward to reading what you've been up to...I love the way you write...can't wait to hear about the islands!!!
Bangkok get together - revised. Hi Kathy,
Nice blog and we too enjoyed your company and conversations last night, talking about a variety of subjects. We would take you along, but like you said, you are going in a different direction, probably by now you already have gone south. We are first going to Cambodia btw, then to Vietnam. If you grow tired of the south and feel like going west, let us know, so we can also tell you where we are.
Good luck finding your own little holy grail, my best advise would be to just enjoy all of it without looking for the revelations and you will get to where ever it is you are going.
Until we meet again?

surgical masks People wear the surgical masks if they are sick or have a cold. It's considered polite to do so, thus you avoid getting other people sick. I also know people who wore them after eating something stinky like roasted garlic, to prevent people from smelling them. :)
I feel like I'm there! K, I can't wait to read more. This was the first account of Japan I've read that wasn't completely positive. Reading about the supercute fashionistas made me giggle aloud. I'm sure I would look like an oaf in their midst.
I still want to be a little bird on your shoulder. A charming anime bird, but a bird all the same.
