Thailand; check! What's next? USA, Germany, Myanmar? Nah; around the world!
It was a fun trip; the tour guide was a nice family guy!
First; check-in in Singapore. Grandma, Aunt Helen, Dad and Uncle Mike was there. Uncle Mike helped me and Uncle job cleared everything and walked us to the gates. Got a window seat because of Uncle Mike; thanks dude! Tsk, tak, tsk. Know what? At first we checked in and asked for window seat but was not given any. It was said to be fully booked. But when Uncle Mike came into the picture and talked to the supervisor; heh, I got a wondow seat! Later got to know that the staff reserved window seats for Ang Mos and regulars. True enough when I boarded; most of the people sitting by the windows were Ang Mos! Watched Yours, Mine and Ours on the plane; a funny and touching movie! Reach Bangkok at around 2p.m (Bangkok time). Took the bus and checked into the hotel. The hotel was just next to the night market, so I did quite a lot of shopping at night!
Woke up really early, had breakfast, checked out and on the way to tour Bangkok and Pattaya! Went to the tiger zoo first then some leather factory and gems factory. Saw tiggers and piglets! Dogs, pigs, tiger living under one roof; happy family! Pigs can count and run! Took pictures with scorpians, monitor lizards (forced to)
Third day woke up early and set off to Coral island! Speed boat ride and I sat right in front. Finally I got a taste of what "endless" meant. The sea was magnificent; no boundary! 20 mins ride; I went up and down with the waves; my butt hurts after that. Greeting me at coral island was clear sea water and soft sand. Went on the jet ski and bath under the sun! Jet Skiing was fun; I imagined I was James Bond on a mission. I was going so fast that the instructor had to ask me to slow down; LOL! Went back to the hotel and went to some garden for preformance. Watched elephants play basketball; soccer and bowling!
That's about it; boy it was fun. Also, in the minst of fun I didn't forget God. After much praying and struggles; God spoke to me through His words. I was really touched and gained strength! Found in John 6:37 and 39 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away... I shall lose none of all that He has given me, but raise them up on the last day. Great yeah; wonderful promise! I was listening to the song Complete at that time.. Thank you Jesus!
