This is just a special post to my friend Jordan Monk Yer Dumb Silverman. Thanks to taking me in, taking my fork when need be and bringing me to lunch. You are my Monk and I will miss you.
Yes, finally. We found it. The combination of Thai Drag Queens (Lady Boys) and American show tunes. That, paired with Thai Mexican food, and I had quite a night in Chiang Rai! While mom devoured a whole fish and I tried to keep my food down from looking at the fried cockroaches, we enjoyed a delicious LadyBoy show, which you should as well, below: They were fab and we loved them. The best was when they would yell at each other to bow and to step right instead of left. No matter what country, a diva is a diva. Yesterday, mom had the genius idea instead of taking a 4 hour bus ride straight from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai, we would instead do a tour and just have them drop us at the end. Note to anyone: this is WAY better than being stuck on a bus for a few hours. We got to see some great stuff, my fav being the White Palace. It was this weird combo of super tacky beauty and a mesh of American humor. I couldn't take pics on the inside, but the temple was covered with images of Superm
And we venture! After making a few necessary pit stops, Target for a car seat so Noah could face forward, In n’ Out because, um, Noah needed it, we pointed to the East and said, sure, why not. Our first few hours were great indications for how a lot of this road trip will go. Breaking out the good snacks already and yelling to each other “we’re doing it!!!!”. Then immediately burning through all the toys I brought for this little boy and learning that as much as I plan and researched all the top ten lists of best road trip toys, there is nothing like the reality of sitting in the back of an RV while your kid screams at you to bring you right back down to offline life. Peaceful snooze for a few hours, thank goodness Our RV, while comfy and immediately homey, sounds like a maraca inside a wind tunnel. So, all toys with any portion of audible enjoyment are out. Great. And all my magnetic tiles and letters that I pictured Noah playing with endlessly to create the words he lov
Yesss...12 hour flight down, another 4 hour flight to go until Bangkok! I am in probably the cleanest airport I have ever placed foot in; im nervous to be here cause I feel like they are going to bust me for not showering in the last 15 minutes. My mom and I keep looking at eachother saying, "what are we doing here?? Are we really doing this trip?". I love that I get to share this with her, this is for sure the ballsy-est trip we have ever done. So far I want to eat everything in sight and put as many spicy sauces on it to burn my tongue until I return to the states in 2 months. I also feel like there was a time I thought I was semi-trendy with my fashion; now I am being put to shame and we aren't even out of the airport yet. More to come soon, see you in Bangkok!
