June 29th
Good Morning!!!
We are slowly moving towards some real tourist activity–we finally just called Riam on the phone after trying to find her on foot yesterday. I know that sounds crazy to say we thought we could find one person in a big city on foot….but we thought she might be hanging out in the same place we met her before (a temple in the old city). Anyway–she was not–so we went with the old tried and true cell phone : )
She was very sweet on the phone and told me she “would have to see me maybe to remember me”. I totally understand that!! So she is coming by at 9am this morning so we can make plans–maybe we can do something today even?? Not sure!
So we are also set to move hotels today–just down the lane (literally a 20 second walk). We spent a great deal of time on the pool yesterday–and it did occur to me that i might miss that at the new place. But if we stay busy with activities, then I won’t miss it. We will have our fill of pools once we get to Phuket anyway…
We walked around the second half of the old city yesterday (the part we did not do last year), and then we sat street side and drank frothy drink (‘cuz we just might be becoming those kids of people–hahah!!)
I had the MOST amazing back shoulder and head massage yesterday. Troy went back to Thai massage…we ate an amazing meal–had some garlic and pepper chicken (just for you Ruby!) and these little chicken wonton things and Panang Curry for supper. We were just down the street from our hotel and on our way back we passed another Rotee stand. Once again phenomenal banana pancake (or Rotee as they call it up here n the north). Amazingly good–better than I even remember!
The bears are ready to move on–here is their last morning at the Raming Lodge…
Talk to you soon…
