We have started the school year. Both of us are on a real learning curve as we get used to Thai customs in the school where we are teaching kindergarten. Days turn into nights quickly and its easy to get caught up in all the lesson planning, school events, and meetings with staff. We're almost as busy as y'all are in the states! Enough of that, on with the show...
We also got a motorcycle that sounds like a bumble bee in a jar. For cruisin of course. Travis loves practicing his wheelies and I love watching him do it, as long as I'm not on the bike with him. On the weekends we go exploring around Khon Kaen's many lakes. Check out the pics!
We've also pimped our crib: We're starting a garden on the back balcony and and have the laptop with surround sound up and running for movies. The university is near our house, so there are always students eating at the street corner shops and hanging out on our block. We're the only Americans for miles, which makes us quite a scene when we join the masses for "dinner on the sidewalk" at night. The best part though, is that the rainy season has come upon us. Compared to Thailand, Seattle does not the know meaning of rain. When the thunder rolls in, the birds stop singing and the people run indoors. Then giant gulf balls fall from the sky. The sound is like machine guns going off. If it happens during class, we turn off the lights and read stories. The kids love it.
