Once mostly settled in Surin, we made a fun weekend out to Bangkok to visit old friends
 |
| We got in from the bus station at 3.30 in the morning and Laura still accepted our company. True friend! Unfortunately her bike got her stuck in Nakhon Pathom that night :( |
 |
| The rain of SE Asia is like no other |

| Kathleen with my earrings. So unlike her. |
 |
| Obviously time to buy crazy hats. The girl on the left we met that night and teaches in Vietnam. From the sounds of things we have it much better in Thailand! |

On this day Anubarnsurin celebrated the Wai Kroo (respect teacher) Ceremony. It is a traditional ceremony in Thailand that starts with a blessing of all teachers and students by a local monk using holy water. Students later gave flowers to their teachers accompanied by traditional Thai music as a separate presentation to mark the day. It was a lovely and we all felt to honored to be teaching here.
