Random

We really get screwed in the US when it comes to fruit. We get like 1% of what's out there. Where are the lychees? the rambutans? the jackfruit? the dragonfruit? and most importantly the Poo Lae Pineapples?
We don't get fruit with vibrant colors and barely any with spikes... no fun.
I'm doing my best to eat every piece of fruit I can find to make up for the sad selection I'll find at home...






A sign made for those of us who are literacy-challenged...
Notice the sign is for kilometers per hour and not miles per hour...
And this isn't exaggerated social marketing, I did see three cars flipped off the side of the road...







Look at me! I can see Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar at the same time...
This is the Golden Triangle, renowned for it's Opium trade...
This is stop two of "Laura needs a new Visa" trip to Myanmar...
















Okay- I suck at documenting my adventures with photographs. I never want to whip out my camera when something cool happens or I see something beautiful. And when I do my pix come out blurry and awful. So guess you'll have to use your imaginations (or wait until Noah comes and takes good pictures of everything)

Yummy! I like spikey fruit. There are good lychees in Chinatown but I'm sure they're better in... you know... Asia.

Do Thai people actually eat pad thai or drink Thai iced tea? (Well I suppose it's "iced tea" there.)
