One week down already. Lots of stuff going on in Thailand. We have done so many amazing things so far I can't wait to see what the next three weeks hold for us. Just got back from a small little backpackers town called Pai, pronounced "BYE". We went during the Thai holliday so it was pretty busy, when Monday came around and it was back to work for everyone the amount of people in the town went down by 2/3. Fell asleep many times in the hammocks in the bungalows and met so many amazing people. For example Ming the tattoo artist, who gave JP his first tattoo was great and invited us out for drinks every night. Yes JP got a new tattoo and it looks pretty good I have to say, lets just hope it heals before we get to the islands.
I think I am going to start a new business, Thai fish massage. You sit on a platform and stick your feet in a tank of doctor fish and let them eat the dead skin away. It was the most akward feeling ever and it was very hard to keep your feet still while they nibbled away. After about 20 minutes you get used to it and it feels great, except for the big ones, they kinda bite hard...to quote Lila "OH NO BIG BOY IS ON MY TOE." Great fun!!!

Bangkok bound
We are all getting ready for a very busy weekend. First San Diego for OTL on Saturday then pack and leave at 7 am on Sunday. We decided to pack the weekend with as much stuff as we could. Awsome that team Juiced made it to the finals at OTL, pissed it had to be the weekend before we leave. Hopefully everyone will be able to relax on saturday and everything is not rush rush rush.
Our clothes are sprayed with our permethrin which is supposed to keep bugs off and we have our 3 bottles of bug spray packed. No malaria for us!! All the little things are packed. Its been very hard to keep everything to the minimal since I have never backpacked around a foreign country before. Live and learn I guess, just some practice for the next big trip.
We will be arriving in Bangkok at 1am on Tuesday with a stop over in Shanghi (hopefully the ninjas wont get us). As soon as we are sitting on the plane and everything is packed and taken care of I will be able to relax. First thing to do is eat some pad tai!

Its getting Closer!!
Ok everyone I made this Blog so you can follow us on our trip to Thailand. I am not a very good blogger so I will do my best to keep this updated. JP and I have gotten all our shots and malaria pills so the germaphobe in me is feeling better about this adventure. We are getting extremely excited for the 18th to get here and thanks to Jake and Lila's great planning everything feels like it is taken care of. If anyone ever needs a trip planner talk to Lila, she is great!!!
