Back to Bangkok

Well, and so we found ourselves back in Bangkok.  

We again stayed at Lub-D and it was great to have the company of Leeni, one of the Finns from the island with us. 

While Scott was diligent and completed his courses...Leeni and I would sit on our terrace in front of the hostel and chat into the wee hours of the morning (maybe afternoon...possibly?) and chat with whom ever joined our table.  The last night we actually went to Gazebo--a beautiful outside terrace with live music.  It was a night to remember...pictures to come up soon.  

Scott and I went to see Black Swan in the theaters here...and I foresee more movies in our future....I love the Bangkok theaters.

We also went to Poy's house and I know Viking was a little apprehensive--but Scott and him played until they were both pretty tired.  It was good to catch up with the family some.  

During this period is the great earthquake tragedy of Japan--and trying to check in on friends in the path of destruction was difficult. It seems that my friends in Japan are doing well and people are still giving us constant updates.  I'm also glad to report that the damage in Hawaii was less than initially predicted and it seems people are doing as best they can for the circumstances.
