and i found a fiend.
then we got on an eighteen hour train ride headed north to chiang mai. it was a fun ride with seats that folded into beds and beds that folded down from the ceiling, overpriced beer and fat welsh neighbors.
ashlei's inner card shark seems to emerge after a couple of beers and many hours of a squeaky and bumpy environment. she swept me at rummy. look at that face. she wasn't playing for fun.
we are leaving chiang mai in a couple of minutes so the next time we are on a computer we will show you some of what we have seen here. for now i'll just say that it was a sigh of relief after the madness that is bangkok. we hope you are all well. bye for now. we are off to the sunny beaches in the south.
Wow, you two have made some very large friends. That arts and cultural center looks brilliantly lit- glad you you could find an oasis away from the focused negotiation of foreign city life. Giz has taken to cuddling with me at night- much to Murf's chagrin. The Japanese cherry blossoms are pinks dots and daffodils, crocus, narcissus, and iris light the Seattle walker's path. Spring is getting ready to leap. I am putting seeds in the kitchen window tomorrow. Miss and love you two. Magical and safe travels.
