It's been very busy since my return from my travels to Southeast Asia a week before Thanksgiving. I would have tried to post earlier but I had a recent loss of my Dad's brother and my fun loving uncle Urbie. It's always sad but we did celebrate his life. Unfortunately he loss his battle with esophagus cancer on December 4th, 2011.
R.I.P. Uncle Urbie Love you Always
Of coarse there was also Thanksgiving which I chose to celebrate at home with my big fat cat Earl since it was my first full day home in over a month..
So back to the travels! How would I sum up in a word the beauty and intriguing culture and land of Thailand and Indonesia... Delicious, Genuine, and absolutely take you breath away Beautiful! Ok that's more than one word but one word is not enough to describe a land of caring people, beautiful land, and absolutely delicious food. So here are some photos to capture a few of the moments.
1st meal.. So Good!!
Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn)
Breath taking Sunsets.. Above Ko Lanta
A couple questions everyone has been asking since I've returned...
1. "Was a month long enough?" Yes and no. I was ready for my own shower and bed and different clothes but I was just starting to really feel comfortable in such a foreign land.
2. "So was the food good?" YES!!!! Some of the best food I've ever had and one of the main things I miss. I haven't had asian food since I've been home cuz I'm a little nervous it's just not gonna measure up but I think I'm ready or at least I want to try and make some of my favorite dishes at home. Maybe that will be some of my next posts??
Well now I feel a little better getting something up since it's been forever except I just realized that my camera went kaput on my trip from the heat and humidity... Xmas ideas for me... New digital camera Please:) Kap kuhn ka! xoxo
