Were Here!!

Well after almost a whole day of traveling, we are finally in Thailand. We got into Bangkok around 8pm and we met up with the missionaries who are taking care of us. They treated us really well. As soon as we arrived at the hotels we went to get some dinner and then we hit the market at night to go shopping. I was so mad- i forgot to bring my camera, but tomorrow should be a good day to get some pictures going. I'm very surprised to see many people who speak English here in Thailand. It's kind of cool ,especially for me because I'll usually do my best to fake it till i make it.

The plane ride was wicked long. To make it even longer, the movie players were not working!! It was a never ending cycle of sleeping, reading, stretching, and listening to music. The food was really good and we received great service from Thai airways. There was a lot of diffetent meals and snacks that they kept us loaded up with. I had a lot of time to think about things- I'll express more of those things later on this week in a series of blogs under the title "Takes from the Plane". I'll blog about things such as turbulence, people, and about when things don't go your way, so don't miss it!! Well, right now back home in America it's about 12 noon. That's crazy!! We are twelve hours ahead, and i have to force myself to sleep. I'll probably pop a movie into my laptop and let the good times roll. I must admit that i'm wired right now. Well, the day of traveling is behind us and for the most part it was smooth. I even learned a little Thai at the airports. They were very friendly and patient with me. Thanks to all of you who prayed for us traveling safely; we appreciate it and please don't stop. God is going to do some great things. I'm excited and nervous about speaking to a group of missionary students, but I'm gonna give it all i got. Well hipefully i can put up some cool pics for you guys to see tomorrow. Well i'm off to bed sleepy heads.

Toodles for now,
PG
