Laurie's World

We started the day slowly as it was a Sunday after all 😂😂. Tee helped us return the bikes to the city last night. Audi and Joy drive the bikes in around 6:45 and Tee and I followed in the car. It is about a 25 minute drive to the old city where the bikes needed to go but we (Troy and I) were not up to that drive on the highway in the dark. So the two 17 year olds took care of it for us! How does that make sense? But it really did…..maybe in another life I would be brave enough……

Tee and I met up with the kids at Danny bike rental. Which is right across the street from what used to be Ginny Cafe and Tee and Ian’s house. The restaurant is shuttered and the townhouse gutted. It’s being remodeled into a burger place apparently. Funny how that is possible??? But it was sad for me as I have so many fond memories there……

Anyway, Tee started talking to the security guard from the Bhodi (in thai) and then the next thing I know he has plyers and a hack saw and is  cutting the lock open on the old Cafe. (I’m like “ok-what is going on??? I can’t go to jail!!) after checking in with Tee she said she noticed a light left on inside the cafe and it needed to be turned off. So then I’m thinking, ok, maybe we have probable cause and I won’t rot in Thai jail. But just for fun, I ask one more clarifying question. “Tee, is this your lock or someone else’s?” She says “mine”…..PHEW!!!! All good…..

As it turns out, she still has stuff in there and Audi has clothes he needs to pick up. So many purposes served by this little escapade.

We head back out to MaeRim with one quick stop at the 7-11 for a Magnum (that’s ice cream btw).

Sunday itself held little action other than packing up and Tee and Ian driving us back into Chiangmai to my beloved hotel, the Baan Ratchiangsaen. We want to Fontanas for supper and had our favourite appetizers. Along with margarita pizza. Overpriced meal at 900 baht  ($30 usd) but very good nonetheless. We have yet to completely duplicate this appy at home but will continue to try!
