Back in Bangkok

We arrived safely in BKK last night around 10:30 pm. It was close to 24 hours of travel and 4 countries: Canada, US, Japan and Thailand. In all of these countries we had to go through immigration, the longest line was the US immigration- and the slowest I might add.
Arriving in BKK was such a different feeling than last year, there was no anxiety and we were able to return to our "home" complete with familiar bedding and personal items.

We are all jet lagged and it should really hit us in the next few hours as it is night in the US. But our wonderful mae bahn tackled the unpacking and we are almost done already. She was glad to see us, but brought us the sad news that her husband passes away two weeks ago. (He had a stroke at the end of May) She is so loyal to us and says she will not need any time off now that we have returned.

It is nice and sunny here, 89 F and humid...it was raining when we left Seattle and 62F. After several mild-no cold- weather in Seattle I am fine with the temp here. Now I can wear my sundresses! I wore my jeans almost every day in July and I only wore them 3 times during the last year here....

Hope all is well with everyone,
Missing you all already,
Kristy
