Can’t sleep 6-12-09

Ξ June 11th, 2009 | → | ∇ Uncategorized |

As the title says:  I can’t sleep and it is 6:00 am so I thought I’d just add some random pics from the last few days.  I hope all of you are doing well.  Brianna, I forgot to wish you the best in your plays.  I can’t wait to get home to see you on stage again.  You are awesome.  Also, a big shout out to Tucker and his awards from the 48 hour film fest.  I sure wish I knew where the he– these two got their talent from and why can’t they share some of it with their dear old dad :)  I love you two and I’ll see you soon.

Okay, enough mushy stuff.  Here are some pics.

You can see that some of the offerings to  Buddha (I think) range from fruit to soft drinks.

This is how my napkin, fork and spoon has been presented at my meals in restaurants.  I have seen  no one using chopsticks everywhere I have eaten.  They use either their hands or a fork and spoon.

Steven, if you look closely you’ll see they have a Heineken in there.  They must have thought we were traveling together again. :)

Man, I didn't know they had snow this time of year.  Who is my travel agent.

I don’t know why these three ladies wanted to have their picture taken with me.  They kept asking over and over and over. So I thought who am I to say no and ruin their day.  Maybe I shouldn’t have told them I know Bruce Willis, or did I say I am Bruce Willis. (Oooopppss.  I can’t help it I’m a giver :)

One mode of transportation in Chiang Mai

This is kind of like a pickup with the back covered.  Everywhere I went on this it was 40 baht.  It didn’t matter if I went 5 minutes or 20 the price was always 40 baht.

Okay, now I’m going to the pool for a swim.  I have to do my 100 laps per day as is my custom.  Would you believe 50 laps?  Would you believe 2 laps?  Would you believe I climb into the pull put my head under and hold my breath for 10 seconds and then come up and breath heavily?

Have a great one.

    Lucas, glad to see you made it to your destination and safely too. Looks and sounds like you are enjoying every minute of it, opps except for the dry heaves on your trip there. I always enjoy the scenery but I don’t miss seeing some of the crazy loooking food that is over there.
    as always-ride safe and always enjoy the sunsets
