Bye For Now Thailand

After a wonderful month in Thailand, we have to say goodbye... for now. We have had a tremendous time there and have great memories of our first visit to "The Land of Smiles". The Thai people we have met along the way have lived up to the name. They were kind and welcoming. Since we live to eat, we are happy to report another cuisine to our fav list. We loved learning about the curries and popular dishes but most of all, we loved eating them! I sampled Pad Thai everywhere I went and love it even more than I did before I got to Thailand. Don is now a big fan of the curries.

Our home away from home, Villa Thongbura, was a delight. We had the best room with the best view and the staff were wonderful. They helped make us feel at home and very comfortable. In fact, as you have read, it was hard to leave our little paradise.

A big thanks to our new friend Nid who made it easy to go to Thailand and have the experience of a lifetime!

We are back in Shantou now. It is rainy and cold and we have had to trade in our warm weather clothes and sandals :( Back to work on Monday when a new term begins.

Here is a selection of pics from our vacation:

That's it for now. Take care everyone!
