Everything Else is Irrelephant

A parcel for room 718!!!

Go Sam :)

Julia captured me trying to find a tea strainer in one of the stores at our local market. So much color, so much confusion. Also that clock is wrong.

A cat we befriended in Wat Umong. We named him Buddha and wanted to take him home :)

Elephants!

An ode to Coca-cola

Wat Phra Singh in the Old City. The biggest and most famous in central Chiang Mai.

I hesitated going into this wat because I thought these guys were real...

But upon closer inspection...

How we get really cheap drinking/cooking water!  Just put in 5 baht and you get  about 6 liters of water.

We wanted to capture what a coat of paint can do for a building. Goodness.

Julia's new age!


Never thought I'd be seeing the inside of an elephant's mouth!




Even though these outfits give me no shape whatsoever (and even though I look like an alien), this was one of the best ways to capture our elephant journey :)




Crazy bug!

The rent was too high in our apartment, so we found a traditional Thai home to live in.

Julia chilling on our new front porch.

Welcome to our home!

It even comes with a loom

And is pre-furnished with a throne

The view between the market and our apartment. So pretty!

My first time making Thai tea!
