Awaken


Hi,

I'm happy to announce that we are back in Chiang Rai, after a long ride home.  Mr. Lag paid us a visit half way through our seven hour layover in Bangkok.  Hmm, things will be interesting for the rest of the week.

This week's 'Easy Monday' song was "You're Gonna Lose That Girl" by The Beatles.  It was from the movie "Help".
Here's a 'Zany Day' song that is sure to bring back memories:  "Sunshine came softly through my window today.  Could've tripped out easy a-but I've a-changed my ways.  It'll take time, I know it, but in a while.  You're gonna be mine, I know it, we'll do it in style..."  Hint:  Two word title that is not sung in the song.  The first word has already been exposed.  The second can reach tall buildings in a single bound.

When we boarded our plane for Taipei we got to experience the new 'pod' environment on the Boeing 777.  It's like sitting in an enclosure with lots of leg room, a seat that allows for reclined sleeping, a large screen for viewing stuff, and lots of storage space.  The only problem is, if you're traveling with someone, you can't see them unless you lean forward and wave.  Most of the food and service was excellent and the time just 'flew' by.  (555)  I had chocolate pancakes for breakfast.  What?

In Taipei we had over two hours to just hang out in a lounge that had the most annoying music yet, for an airport.  It was about 5:30am when we landed and the airport was just waking up.  By the time we started toward our departure gate, the joint was jumping.  The shops were buzzing and people were taking photos at the Hello Kitty pay phone.  

I'm getting very sleepy, again, so I'll tell you more about the Bangkok airport adventures in travel in our next episode.

It's time for Wacky Wednesday.

                     Peace,
                                Danny
