A Taste of Thailand

I had the privelege of visiting Dayton & Erin, Grace, and Isaiah this Christmas and had a wonderful time! They took me to Chang Rhi, in the northern mountains of Thailand to stay a few days with a missionary couple there. I even rode on an elephant! Grace rode on the elephant too, and wasn't scared a bit! We rode on a river speed boat too! We went up to the 74th floor of Bankok's tallest hotel and that's where I took the pictures of Bankok's buildings and roads. We went to numerous little shops and passed by road-side vendors. Many things were a lot cheaper there--a MacDonald's cheese burger was only about 32 cents! I guess that's why there were a lot of tourists vacationing there--your money goes further over there. We also went to two old palaces where past Kings and Queens had lived. Thailand still has a King, which is unique. I even got some souvenirs.
God kept us safe throughout our travels, and all the praise belongs to Him!
