homebase


we made it back. yes it has been a while since we have written anything, but that's cause we were out sucking up every moment of s.w. thailand that we could before we had to pack our bags, hang our heads, get on a 10 hour bus to bangkok, wash up in the bathroom using sani-wipes, get on a 3 hour plane to tipei, then take the final 10 hour flight back to the states, where we were graciously met my em's dad, steve, (who mentioned nothing about my red eyes and strange smell) who then took us to our house that was locked with our keys and phones inside. funny to be so close, but still not be able to really be home. at a coffee shop a few blocks away we called our heroic room mate becky who came and picked us up. more photos soon but first we must adjust to the time zone difference and climate change by waking up late and snowboarding tomorrow.

Hey y'all - If this posts successfully I have managed to tame the internet and wrangle it to do my bidding. These Thai internet cafes are always full of shiny new computers that look like they work great! The internet connection itself is pretty shoddy...however I am pleased they are sporting high-quality ACER brand computers; up til now I thought I was the only person lucky enough to own one. Poor excuses for not blogging, I know. Gavin and I are sorry we have gotten so lazy about the blog....we've been kinda busy, well not right now, actually I lent my book to Gavin, and ever since he has been locked in the hotel room reading. It's weird. But we have been on the beaches of Thailand for the last week and a half, and you'll hear all about it when we get back. We are much tanner now. We are having a contest for the most mosquito/flea/fly bites. And also whose clothes can get the stinkiest. We miss you guys. Can't wait to see you all sometime soon.
