Wow! So much going on that it's hard to even write about it! Despite the food poisoning changing plans a little bit, we made the most of the time that Mom and Matt were here. We went and saw The Hobbit while we were recovering and got out and about once we felt well enough. Mom and I went to the Grand Palace, Chatachuk market (one of the largest in the world), Jim Thompson House Museum, Wat Pho (a temple that I liked much more than the one at the Grand Palace), Thai cooking class, and the Museum of Floral Culture. In between we snuck in iced coffee, rooftop cocktails at sunset, good food, and a 2 hour Thai massage. Ahhhhh. While she was in Singapore for a few days Matt and I got some work done, but also found time for naps, massage, Thai cooking class, and rooftop cocktails with some of my friends.
It was wonderful having them here and showing them a bit of my world across the globe.

This sign was posted on a board that was literally a good 7 feet in the air. I'm sure people that tall are quite adept at being careful of head impacts. |
