-Everyone in the group has mosquito bites. Lots and lots of them. I'm one of the lucky few who hasn't gotten them on my face.
-To relieve the itch of these bites, we use "White Monkey Holding Peach", a little balm that smells like Icy/Hot. I don't know why they don't sell it in the U.S. It's a lifesaver.
-When someone orders sausage for breakfast, they get a hot dog.
-I've been to 7-11 here more times than I've been in my whole life. Who would've thought that tomato soup chips and pizza flavored pretzels would be so tasty?
-The sunsets here are orange. And so beautiful.
-I've come to realize that I can't bargain at all. I'll have to get better if I plan to keep shopping at the markets.
This weekend is the start of the Songkran Festival (a week-long water fight for the Thai new year)! We don't have class for a week, so most of us are traveling to Pai from Saturday to Monday. Fun!

Hi Kathleen~
Wow! It sounds like you're having a great time and learning so much! Keep posting those pictures, they're really great. We'll miss you for Easter. I'm sure it'll be really interesting. Wonder if they celebrate Easter in Thailand.....
