Hi,
It was another gorgeous day in the Land of Smiles. The events of the day ranged from 'goodbyes' to 'hellos' with a little business in the middle.
There was no foolin' many of you with the 'Wild Card Wednesday' song. Here's a little more for you to enjoy:
"Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now. Softly smile, I know she must be kind. When I look in her eyes, she goes with me to a blossom world. I'm pickin' up __ __, she's givin' me the excitations (repeat)" Hint: There's a very special frequency being transmitted. Hmm.
Today we had lunch with our good friend Atom. We went to a Vietnamese restaurant operated by our artist friend, Moo. We talked a lot about her trip to Beijing later this month. She will be living there for six months, studying Chinese. There was lots of laughter at the table and it was good for all of us. Atom has provided title translations for most of Lisa's artwork. Besides being a valuable member of the 'team', she has been a guide and a friend. We'll see her on the internet so it's not such a sad goodbye.
Early afternoon we had a meeting with Jaffee about various things dealing with the Chiang Mai exhibit. There are little, behind the scenes things that have to be dealt with so we meet and figure things out. Tomorrow the work will be crated and the shippers will come the week before the show. Posters have to be put up in Chiang Mai and name tags have to be prepared. The exhibit will be at Sangdee Gallery and Cafe. It's a very cool place that has food, music, spoken word and art so there is always something going on there. Hmm, we need a place like that in Chiang Rai.
This evening we met with a couple who are traveling from America. They are friends of Lisa's step-sister, Karen Jo. We picked them up from their hotel and went to the Night Bazaar for dinner. After dinner we cruised the shopping area and showed them some of our favorite vendors. The place was packed with tourists and locals. We haven't seen it like this in years. As we walked out of the Night Bazaar we realized it was almost 9pm. That meant we had just enough time to catch the last Clock Tower light show. The changing colored lights on the golden tower are always a sight to behold. Tomorrow I'll take them to see Wat Rong Khun and then back to our house for lunch.
Have a Thrilling Thursday.
Peace,
Danny
