Go Pee-Pee
Hey everyone, thanks for all the notes you have been leaving. It’s really nice to hear from all of you, get that little bit of home, smart-ass comments and all.
We ended up staying several more days on Koh Tao than we had originally expected. This actually turned out to be quite fortunate as it gave us the chance to really get to know the people and the place a lot better. I am starting to find that you really need to spend a good chunk of time in a spot if you want to really experience it. The last few days have been less exciting than being attacked by underwater creatures but still a lot of fun. I got to spend a lot of time with the Thais working at the place we were staying and they were all such friendly, good people. It is nice talking to other tourists but after a while it kinda all feels the same. “Where are you from?, How long have you been here?, Where have you been?, Where are you going?”

I am about to catch a boat to Ko Phi-Phi (pronounced Pee-Pee, maybe that’s why the water is so warm around here) which is one of the areas that was hardest hit by the Tsunami. Apparently it is still quite a mess, so I am going to see if I can volunteer for a few days to help clean up. I’ll write again soon and let you all know how it is.

Hey Adam - I keep leaving comments on your sis’ blog, but I just wanted to let you know I’m reading them both and yours is very lovely too - nice pictures. Take care and best wishes with the job when it comes around (and the volunteering).

Dear Adam,
I have written 100 replies to condolences received and still have more than 150 to do. Keeps me busy along with daily living!
I will have to learn how to set up a blog for my 5 day trip July 18-22.Mollie and I are travelling by bus to Thompson, and overnight by rail to Churchill. Whales are the big attraction at this time of year, and I imagine there will be polar bears. We’re told to bring layers, and maybe a parka (which I don’t have).Different from the gear you’re carrying. Love, Baba

I wish I could’ve stay a few extra days when we went to Disney World. I’d be interested in setting up a blog when I go to Hawaii in december for 2 weeks. Not much new here… Just had a Father’s Day feast (ew… Chicken Delight) and decided to check if you’d posted. I hope the charity work goes well. ~Gary
