Thai Thrice

We have traveled back to Thailand a 3rd time.  Deb and I really enjoy this spot as it has many of the attributes we seek in our vacation destinations.  We are getting a very early celebration of our 30th wedding anniversary coming up next year and because of family schedules and monsoon rains, it turns out that the time is now for the trip.  I must say the travel is long and tedious to get here and it seemed a bit more sufferable this time around.  It was our first time making a connection in Beijing, China as we flew on China Air.  All I can say about that airline, is "pack "em in" and think small!  Other Asian airlines have been a much better experience for us.  Today we spent several hours on Phrang Nang beach and then got in some rock climbing before a thunderstorm chased us back to our hotel a little early.  I have realized that Railey here in Southern Thailand has many contrasts and to savor the good things one must endure the less desirable things.  I could expound on these contrasts but will do so later.    Love and miss everyone at home, especially the grand daughters!
