Thailand

I have not been keeping up on my blog for a couple of reasons.
A: The internet is very spendy here, and
B: I have been too much fun to sit at a computer for a while and update.

Selfish, maybe...please forgive me. :)

Thailand is simply sublime. We were in Bangkok for 3 nights...2 catching up with Lindsey (though I was not that much fun, being sick), and one catching up with Joe.
I didn't do anything crazy in Bangkok, except for going to about 30 different 7/11's.

We have been in Ton Sai, Railey since we left the train from Bangkok. It is amazing here. Huge rock formations of all colors jetting out of the sea...kayaking every day and/or hiking, and always going to the beach...rock climbing and then jumping off into the clear turquoise water, that is as warm as your favorite bath.
ahhhhhhh.
The days are exhausting, but so much fun.

Tomorrow we are taking a boat to Phuket to see Lindsey and Skyler. We'll camp on the beach, all of us tomorrow, and TJ and I for 2 more nights. Then we have a travel night on train to Bangkok for our flight on the 22nd.

It feels like we just got here.
Thailand is wonderful in so many ways. It is a great change from the chaos of India. Though poverty is still an issue here, and the people rely heavily on tourism, the people are much different in their attitudes. Maybe that has to do with the idea of fatalism in India...here people try to improve their conditions. The people are so nice, the food I just can't get enough of, and what we have seen and done has been incredible.

I know I will come back to Thailand, and next time for a much longer time.
