Time to Leave Thailand


On our last night in Thailand, we watched the sunset while having drinks at the Grotto Bar at the hotel.  It's time to leave. Chris's sunburn is getting better. I am finally comfortable saying Hello in Thai: "Sawatdee Kaa". Lexi's single pair of daily disposable contact lenses have lasted the 14 days we were gone (thank goodness). She forgot to pack fresh lenses and eyeglasses. Ryan's arms and legs are covered in mosquito bites. Could it be from all the time he spent standing outside the hotel library skyping? And we have cut way back on asking "Is it spicy?" before we eat anything.

We are refreshed, enlightened by the different culture we learned about, and sad that it has to end. But we take with us memories that will last a lifetime.

After a long 13 and 1/2 hour flight, we are back in London with fresh orchid corsages handed out on the plane for the ladies. A sweet ending.
