We're in Bangkok!


We are in Bangkok. It's been pouring with rain all day so we feel quite at home but it's also nice and warm, not like Edinburgh.
The journey was long - 2 x 6.5hrs and we had to bolt from one plane to the other in Doha so no time to find water etc. Geoff survived without the pipe and is now well topped up! We got in to this lovely hotel at 10am (4am Scottish time), slept and have now come to. It's 6pm and time for breakfast or lunch or something... body and brain are a bit confused.
We are off to find a meal and the big project for tomorrow is to find paper, crayons, pencils to take to Hle Bee on Sunday. Cheerio!

Hey- you both look really good given the long journey. Thought about you all day yesterday as you were both travelling. Hope you get the crayons etc.. Sheila- how are you managing with the grub- lots of fresh fruit - you will be coming back heaps healthier.

Ah Chris, we have just bought 10Kilos of school stationery! Never mind, maybe we will buy more in Mae Sot.
Malcolm and Rowena, we were thinking about you very much on Thursday. We hope your meeting at Gatwick went well. Quite worried about having to eat 'grubs' having watched Cooking in the Danger Zone last week on BBC2! but the grub here is out of this world. Reminds me of Toronto, Rowena!
Love
Sheila and Geoff
