Whisky in the Jar
What Do You Do with a Drunken Sailor? - Put her in bed with the Captain's Daughter!
Thavorn took the early bus to Kok Som Lan yesterday (Monday) morning to bring her two oldest children to Bangkok for their school holidays and Songkran. She arrived back this afternoon, completing the 11 hour round trip. It is hard enough without Jaidan so I looked after Jaidan over the past two days. Last night we stopped in at Crazy Girls bar to chat with my friend Phai.
We decided to stop in at 7/11 for some junk food (chips) and Jaidan noticed a new truck at the toy counter which he makes a beeline to every time we go there.
Here is a pic with him playing with his new truck and cars last night.
Now that Tai and Dun are here you are more likely to see:
Tai is the darkest, followed by Dun and Jaidan who is as white as I am. However, Jaidan does have Thai skin. He can be out in the sun for 8 hours straight and never burns, but will tan slightly, about the same as me. However, unlike him, I will burn initially until I get my tan.
Tai and Dun like visiting us as they get fed well, with a larger variety of food and have less work. Definitely a holiday for them. They do have their chores here but much less than in the village and they don't have to forage for themselves.
The three of them get along well despite the age difference with Jaidan. It is also good as Jaidan learns to share!
Still no news on Thavorn's visa application. I will send another query at the 60 day mark. It is a good thing we are not planning on travelling until Aug 1st. However, the price of air tickets rise the closer we get to departure.
Now that Tai and Dun are here, Thavorn and I get to go out at night. Not tonight though, Thavorn is tired after the round trip and Tuesday night is not a fun night.
