The Kingdom of Thailand



Thailand, every cheap Mennonites dream. Things here are nice but quite cheap. I think that speaks for most of Southeast Asia. Our time here has been good, my folks came out for a few weeks and we had a real enjoyable time on the beach and also in the markets. We spent 5 days in the south at Railay beach, while staying busy lying on the beach, snorkeling and we even got in a couple of dives (check www.flickr.com/photos/crftravels/ for more pictures).
We then made it to Chiang Mai, where yes, there was plenty markets and foot massages. It has been a time of refreshment, if you can refresh in the heat that is. We are off to Cambodia shortly.
Sorry for the long delay between posts, but, sometimes it’s hard to remain faithful on here and post regularly. Partly because internet access can be limited and partly because we sometimes feel like no one is reading anyway. If and when you read this, send us a comment or better yet, send us an email and tell us how YOU are doing. We may be half way around the world, but we still like knowing how YOU are doing. The only way we can know is if YOU tell us. It helps us not feel so out of touch! Thanks for bearing with us.

Hey guys! I just discovered your blog today :) Don't know how I missed it before. What a great idea! Sounds like you are having some really great experiences. I've heard there is supposed to be incredible diving in those parts. Must have been nice to have your folks come and visit too. We think about you quite often and are praying for you!
