Hey everybody! I’m heading residence later this week. Woohoo! I’ve been away for nearly 6 weeks and am anxious to get residence. Journey is enjoyable, however I’m fully worn out. We spent the primary 3 weeks touring round Japan. It was exhausting, however we had a good time. After that, RB40Jr and I flew to Thailand to go to my dad. He’s constructing a home in Bang Saen, a seashore city.
Sadly, there was a ton of delay with the development. Apparently, contractors are the identical all over the place. All the pieces was speculated to be carried out earlier than we arrive. I hoped to remain at our seashore shack, however we needed to keep in a lodge as an alternative. Low cost accommodations in Thailand have horrible beds. I’ve again ache from sleeping in these onerous beds. We might keep in a nicer lodge, however this one is correct subsequent to our home. It’s probably the most handy place to remain.
We haven’t carried out a lot in Thailand. We went to go to households and explored the native space. It was enjoyable, however fairly low-key. Mainly, we spent numerous time on the seashore and going out to eat.
That is Khoa Sam Muk, a hill close by with many monkeys. They behaved fairly properly and didn’t hassle us a lot. It was neat to see so many monkeys roaming round.
My dad bought durian and a giant bag of mangosteen from a roadside vendor. One durian price about $12. Durians are fairly costly lately as a result of they’re standard in China. Mangosteen was extra inexpensive. They’re my favourite fruits. If you happen to see mangosteen on the market, make sure to strive them out. They don’t ship properly and I solely eat them after I’m in Thailand.
The Bang Saen Aquarium. This aquarium has been right here for a few years. I visited a number of instances after I was younger. They improved tremendously through the years. It’s a neat place to go to while you’re on the town.
Lastly, we received RB40Jr a pair of spare glasses. It price $58 whole. That is method cheaper than his present glasses. The one we received within the US price $200 after insurance coverage. Earlier than insurance coverage, it might have price $600. The price of residing is fairly loopy at residence.
Alright, we’re on the point of go residence. I simply must get a haircut ($3) and choose up some native snacks to deliver residence. Subsequent week, we’ll get again to the repeatedly scheduled private finance posts. I can’t write about private finance whereas I’m on trip. My head simply isn’t into it.
I hope you’re having a terrific summer season. I heard back-to-school gross sales already began. Summer time is dwindling shortly. Get pleasure from it when you can!
