Picture of us in a Tuk tuk!!!
Well... what else do you want to know? How about the six star hotel??

So, we're in a 1800 sq. ft presidential suite. Plus another adjoining room. Yeah, I know!!! There's a family room with a baby grand piano, a huge view of Bangkok, a huge bedroom, a huge bathroom with a jacuzzi, a dining room, and a kitchenette. From the window right now, we can see horse races!! Thailand is amazing.

We spent 3 hours yesterday... swimming in the HUGE pool.

We get the keys to our house on Tuesday!!!

Well, Martha wants a turn so I'll write more later!!

Tuk Tuk Rides In Bangkok

So we spent most of Saturday riding around Bangkok in these little cart things called Tuk tuks that would be TOTALLY illegal in the US... but they're really fun :) I'll post pictures soon... but for now I'll try to explain them... they're, like I said, little cart things that you drive around in. They have a seat for the driver, and then in the back, they have another seat that can fit around, oh, 3 people? So, imagine this. 6 people plus a huge chunky baby carrier. Get the picture? It was really squished in there. :) There are a billion of them all over! Well... not a billion but a lot. They sit at the curbs of shopping malls and other large gathering places and try to get people who need a ride to go in their tuk tuk. I'll post more in a minute...

Goodbye America!

So... when we left Midland it rained... almost as it Midland were crying because we were leaving. :) And now it's raining in Seattle... I don't think the USA wants us to go. :D

Well... I've had a great week and a half. We've visited grandparents and great-grandparents and cousins. I almost wish I could live in Seattle. Not really, though.

So, how are all of my friends in MI??? Drop me an email or a Facebook message, because I'm really bored.

(If you don't know my email, it's villisikka@gmail.com)

Emma is making me get off now... so I'll try to write when we're on the plane :)

We're very very busy and we've got a lot to do...

It's true, we are very very busy. My last full day in Midland, MI for a long while is today. Sad, but true... I'm flying out to Seattle, WA to visit cousins and grandparents and great-grandparents. I must say that I'm kind of excited to go to Thailand. :) My last day in the USA is July 21... I've got to go now... we're staying in the H Hotel!!! It's super nice :)

Swa ti ka,
