So we landed this morning around 2am, Bangkok time. It was a pretty decent trip, considering we had one layover for about an hour in Taipei, and were on the road for around 24 hours from SFO to BKK. Not bad.
I’m in this paid-library space called the Thailand Knowledge Park (TK Park) which you have to pay, like $2, to come in and use their collection. They’ve got Internet computers, books (according to Dewey system numbers, yeah!), magazines, a cafe, and a music center. It’s very clean and quiet, but the physical layout is pretty crammed with stuff so it’s hard to move around. It’s almost what I think a library that’s well funded should be like, but with fees–I’m paying around $1/hour for Internet. It’s in a shopping mall on the top floor (excellent views) and near a lot of schools. I wonder how this will survive as a concept?
Sounds/looks like you found a pretty good spot to check your mail etc. Look forward to hearing more from you…
Hey there kiddo and Da,
It sounds like one big adventure and such learning about how we feel without our “devices”. Chad, you can’t get too far away from your writing. You are just too gifted and with such a powerful voice.
Wish I could be there for all of it except the snakes! Don’t worry about the photos, sending things. Just continue to be present there. Photos in your mind are always the best!
I love you both. Take care and say Hi to your family, Da.
Love, MOM
