Max's birthday

Max turned 7 yesterday! While Dan and Anna were off visiting a hill tribe village in the mountains (working on a project for Engineers without Borders), Max got to plan the day for us. So we started the day with breakfast at his favorite breakfast place (french toast with mangoes), then we went off to the zoo again. Although it was a pretty hot day, we trekked around to see all the animals of his choice, and since they are a bit looser with regulations here, there are often opportunities to feed the animals with food purchased by people stationed by the animal's area. So Max got to feed an elephant, some giraffes, and a hippo. Then we saw an animal show, and a seal show, topping the day off with several fishy-smelling birthday kisses from the seal. Dan and Anna returned in time for dinner at his favorite dinner place, with presents from everyone. All in all, not a bad day.

To see what else we're up to, we have posted new pictures on our share site at: http://lonswaywaldorfsinthailand.shutterfly.com/ They are from Ginger, and they cover our daily life, as well as some past activities like Easter brunch and Songkran festivities. Just a few more days here in Chiang Mai, and then we leave for the weekend in Sukothai, and the next few weeks in Nong Kai, on the banks of the Mekong River across from Laos. Hope everyone is doing well at home!

  1. French Toast, the zoo, and dinner with presents? You might as well be at a Denny's...
