Last weekend we decided to go on a little adventure. Katie went to a Gwen Stefani concert in Bangkok with some teacher friends of hers. The Lady’s Night Out came complete with lots of loud screaming for the amazingly sculpted Gwen. But the best part was when Katie spotted her favorite Thai hip-hop band: Thaitanium, who were also at the concert to enjoy the amazingly sculpted Gwen.
While Katie was singing the "Bananas Song" with her ladies, Travis was on his own adventure. Ayutthaya, the historical capital of Siam, is a photographers’ paradise. Travis spent days walking through one thousand year old ruins built by the ancestors of the Thais we live and work with today. Travis saw the courtyards where Burmese soldiers invaded, and cut off the heads of all the Buddha statues. He saw one thousand year old Wats (Buddhist temples) and stupas. Ayutthaya really is an abandoned kingdom.
Whether singing the "Bananas Song" or watching sunrise over a city in ruins, we both felt like we had equally religious experiences on our adventures this weekend. Now we’re back home for the countdown of days until the end of the school semester. Whoop! Whoop!
