Some Like it HOT!

From Tourist Boat Views in Bangkok, Thailand

Thais certainly like their red hot chili peppers! When I hopped off the Tourist Boat yesterday I found myself wandering around in a huge fruit and vegetable market next to Pak Klong Tarad, the city's largest fresh flower market. Both are located near Memorial Bridge. You can get flowers for as little as 10 to 15 baht, so if you're in Bangkok be sure to buy some for someone special. : )

Spring in Amherst

We've been enjoying spring in Amherst as we get ready to go back to Pakistan this summer. Our travel plans are coming together! We'll be spending the month of June in the Azores, where Duarte grew up. Then we're off to Germany for a few days so we can catch a flight to Karachi, and then on to Lahore. We'll be arriving in Punjab in the heat of summer, likely before the monsoon rains have set in to help cool things off. Needless to say that now we're enjoying life without AC, walking outside, not having to wear SPF 60 sunscreen, rain, cool fresh air,and spring flowers!

Time for us to start counting how many days are left, and to make our "Must Do Before Leaving America" list. I think I'd like to have one last french vanilla coffee coolatta with whip cream, go jogging, wear shorts, and go waterskiing.
