A Brand New Day

Well, we have both arrived here safely in Bangkok. Nathan arrived without luggage for the first day or so but managed to get a new shirt, underwear and socks for around $5. Rachael arrived a couple of days later (on Jan 1) after spending 17 hours in Kuala Lumpur.

We spent their first evening together taking a boat up the river, trying some local and very authentic Thai food and headed to the very touristy Khao Sang Road. (by the way, Rachael even quite enjoyed her meal)

Nathan also spent New Years Eve in Bangkok with Bec Tually and has been enjoying hearing her stories and experiences from her 6 months here.

Randomly Nathan ran into the Dye family, Mike, Jenny, Michelle, Josh and Jess while making his way home from the new year festivities.

We will be heading out to the Bamboo school in the next day most likely and am looking forward to meeting the kids.

So, so far so good. Hope all is going well back there and hope to keep you update again soon.

Also, we have new phone numbers:

Nathan +66 870 742 761
Rachael + 66 811 009 369
