Winding down

Went and checked out a new hotel for next time. It's the place with the outdoor cafe where we eat a lot with our friends. I told Nong, if we were spending every night here anyway, let's save the tuk-tuk fare home and just stay here next time. Not as nice as where we are now, but the price is only $13 a night.....and that's before we send Machima to start working on our hook up! Good deal.

Almost burned my pudgy little body at the pool yesterday. I'm all pink and was headed for red.

Nothing going on. Kinda just hanging out and waiting to go home. Tomorrow will hit the Embassy to MPS* another 6 boxes home. We're mailing all of our clothes too, because we fly NorthWorst home too, and they made us empty our suitcases coming over. We'll, we could have paid $700 to move 30 pounds**, but didn't have that amount in my pocket change.

* MPS= Military Postal Service. Basically it's free mail in theater and Thailand and Japan are both in theater.
** We were actually under our allowed weight, however we didn't have it spread amongst enough suitcases. We were allowed 80 kg (4 suitcases X 20 kg). We had 63 kg in 2 suitcases, which apparently is an offense worth $700 to the airlines. I hate them, I hate them.

Peace, out
