Waking Up in Thailand


It has happened before that I have woken up in a hotel room and for a split second had no idea what country I was in. This morning though, I threw open the curtains and knew exactly where I was as I viewed the pre-dawn beauty of northern Thailand where I am staying for a week. (The jaw-dropping fact that I was up before dawn was due to minor jet lag...a one hour time difference.) This summer has been a little hectic, with visitors, projects, basket orders, melting, sweltering heat, and now a trip to Thailand. Everything is going well though. Mimi (my dog) is still a great joy, except for the dog hair she leaves all over the wood floors. I am SO HAPPY to have her back in China though; she's the funniest bit of joy to ever drop into my China life. When I return to China, I'll try to send a few pics of things I didn't have time to post during the summer...I'll try to catch up on the blogging news. I hope this finds all of you well!
