Friends/Small World Photos

We are going to be offline for the next two weeks as Andrea's parents will be visiting. But we have a few posts scheduled for your viewing interest!

We have continued to enjoy time with new friends here and catch up with friends from the past. Photo below - Andrea and some of her classmates on their tour of Chiva Som in Huahin.

We have really enjoyed hanging out with Fink and Fern and their friends on Sunday evenings after Fern has finished playing with the Bangkok Symphony at Lumphini Park. (Photo below, clockwise from top, Fern, Fing, Nan, Boss, Nalinee and Finda)

Clearly we have found a new eating spot with Fink and Fern! Photo below - Same place as previous photo (Fink and Fern, Andrea, LJ and Fink's dad.) Fink's dad is a well known musician in Thailand. LJ spent 4 years Tennessee during elementary school and also has a band named Kobe. A new video by Kobe can be seen here. Andrea unexpectedly had a Thai version of "turducken" - a hotdog, wrapped in ham, wrapped in chicken and deep fried!

We had a blast from the past surprise visit from Monty and Mary Smith. Monty was the Pastor of a church in Tacoma that at one point housed Northwest Leadership Foundation and Hilltop Health Ministries/Sound Youth Counseling. Monty (similar to Bradd in this earlier post) was literally walking out the door of NLF when a former colleague of Andrea and mine said..."You're going to Thailand..." Anyway, unfortunately Andrea had a prior interview scheduled for her MP, but I had a great evening catching up with Monty and Mary.

How do you get around Bangkok if you have four kids? Andy and Anne (Nini) sometimes do it on two bikes - 2 in the trailer, one on the back and one in the front!)

Thanks so much for all your posts, Duncan and Andrea. It almost seems like I'm there with you! I'm really sorry I can't visit you while you're there. Blessings, Leisa D and family
