I received my brandy new passport in the mail today!
......And it has a nice, big, "F" where it says, "Sex."
I leave for Thailand in 47 days!
Wow, that's fantastic! Feels great, doesn't it?
Wow Jessica, that's amazing. Both the passport and how soon until your gcs.
Fantastic news, beautiful lady!! ;D
Congrats Jess! I am sure you are going to have an incredible experience.
Its an amazing place with amazing people.
You have to tour the Kings Palace. On the wall (inside) that surrounds the temples is the history of Siam.
Brilliant. So many Buddahs.. Even one for the day you were born (Mon thru Sun)
At the Reclining Buddah, for 20 baht, you get a tin cup of coins. As you walk along the back, say a prayer and deposit a coin. All coins go to funding social functions.
These are the pics I took during my trip:

Thai lesson:
Saw wat dee Kaa. A greeting. Good morning, good (almost anything). Draw out the Kaa (guys say krup)
Kop koon Kaaa. This is Thank you. again draw out the Kaa.
Hands claped together and said with a slight bow to say hello to any one you place highly.
Congrats, have fun, eat well and (of course) heal well
