Unfortunately, as luck would have it, I was stung by a massive jelly fish at the end of the trip. That put things into perspective quite quickly. Let's just say I had a "date with destiny!"
Keep well everyone~!

Thailand '09
I was lucky enough to travel to the Far East for my first time. I went with Kenya Airways and the Thailand tourism board to this beautiful country. What an amazing adventure. Simply stunning to say the least. The travels brought me to Myanmar, Lous, and Thailand. I learned a lot about the Buddist religion, saw many temples and waterfalls, snorkled in pristine coral, laid on the beaches and went to a coffee plantation. I was even able to see my own version of "Cheeseburger in Paradise" (see below)!

You went to Thailand! I am so jealous. It looks like you had a good time -- minus the run-in with the jellyfish. I hope you don't mind, I used one of your pictures as the picture on my desktop. I hope all is well with you, my dear friend. -- Panhia
