Randomness

Some random thoughts on our travels...
* I just had a two hour massage for $10.
* I didn't know I could fold in half - now I do...fold and know.
* I miss my kids.
* I love palm trees.
* Sticky coconut rice and fresh mangos are really good.
* You eat sticky rice with your fingers - at least I do now that I got laughed at for using a fork.
* They don't use chopsticks in Thailand. They do use a fork to scoop into a spoon.
* Traffic is crazy.
* You can fit a family of five on a scooter.
* We are selling the minivan and buying two mopeds when we get home.
* I love walking, I don't do it enough at home.
* Thai chilies are awesome.
* It doesn't smell fantastic here...except at meal time.
* Air conditioning is a gift from God.
* I get up before the rooster crows...literally.
* We can see the ocean from our place.
* Starbucks green tea frap's are not the same here. I'm going to stop trying to find one I like.
* There are 7-eleven's everywhere here...and stray dogs.
* They love my white skin here.
* I have been warned to wear a hat lest I ruin it with a tan...or any color at all.
* The beauty industry is obsessed with skin whitening products.
* I had a hard time finding a moisturizer that didn't have lightening agents in it.
* I finally did - was scared I would come home translucent if I got any more pale.
* I'm going to try to grow a mango tree when I get home.
* We are having a wonderful re-creating time.
* I still have to think really hard about what day we are living in :)
