Don't go chasing waterfalls

Happy Superbowl Monday! We tried asking around to see if anyone was showing the game which was a no since it was on at 0600. We watched a segment on Al Jazeera about how crazy Americans are and how much money everyone spends on one event. We got on wifi with :57 seconds left, apparently that was perfect timing.

Our non air-con wasn't as bad as we predicted (although right now at 1755 it's a furnace). The issue is that there's no window, no cross breeze and the mosquitos are too ferocious to keep the doors open. Price you pay for being mere feet from the beach.

Did a "short-but-rough hike" to Nam Tok Phaeng. Michael thinks it was a record breaking sweat for him, I had to remind him of Afghanistan. He said its the sweatiest he's been sans body armor. We both had a healthy glisten covering our entire bodies, running off our ears, noses, just about everywhere. After that I rode over to Haad Salad beach with my Larry Crowne husband. He drives in the shoulder the ENTIRE time claiming he's waiting for someone to pass him. He's also a stickler for the rules as he read that you could be fined if your not wearing a helmet, which he inquired about when the scooter only came with one helmet. Only the driver needs to be wearing one but rules aren't unforced on any level in the country (unless they are in reference to the King), 85% of the riders we see aren't even fully clothed let alone wearing a helmet.

Shout outs of the day:
Marisa THANK YOU for convincing me to bring an umbrella, we've had torrential rain every afternoon.

Mom - commenting on my blog isn't an acceptable form of communication, especially when I've e-mailed you. How about responding?
