Last night in Thaton

We were so sad to leave the adorable little town we'd lived in for three months! We'd worked up to the very last minute on the water filter, and drove through the rain to enjoy a farewell meal with our group at a ...barbeque place.

Riding in the back of the truck in the rain in style

Stump of coals with a heat..plate..thingy. Melt the fat on top and cook whatever meat you desire! So sanitary..not.

Shrimp for the barby
We were being super cautious to not mix the raw meat utensils with the cooked meat utensils, but you can't deny the cross contamination that must have been going on in the boiling pot thingy. {shudder}
 We were getting so sad to leave our awesome friends :(
Tonya and Sydney
Nat and Jonathan
Heidi and Tonya (again..haha)
Justin and I
I'm not sure how I missed the memo on guava fruit the whole time we were in Thailand, but they are delicious! In Northern Thailand they are called 'farang' which is also the word for foreigner, so it's quite humorous for Thai people to see a farang eating a farang. That didn't stop me though!
Us and wave three. We wanted so badly to stay with them!
 We spent the rest of the evening saying goodbye to our friends.

Mr. Honey, the roti man and most popular guy in town. Nothing beats his fried deliciousness!

Oy, Gam, and Pi Ue. These ladies fed us almost every night in Thailand and learned like two words of English the whole time. Pretty wonderful.
It was hard to say goodbye to our little home! We had spent more time here than anywhere else in our whole married life and it was really hard to leave it!
Next stop, Chiang Mai!

  1. So glad you finished up your Thailand experience, and what a great shot of your room and the places you became so familiar with! You will never forget all that you accomplished and those you came to love.
