Reservations are confirmed , bags are almost packed, and we are counting down to six more sleeps before we leave for Thailand. We have cooking classes, elephants, jungle trekking, unique temples and an exotic culture to look forward to.And of course delicious Thai cuisine.
Political situation seems to be stable in Bangkok, and according to the WHO, there are no confirmed swine flu cases in Thailand, so far anyway.
Because of flight schedules,or to avoid a yucky flight schedule I should say, we will be spending Saturday on Oahu. We'll have a full day to relax on the beach, melt toxic work thoughts away, and get in slow vacation moods. Hopefully, we'll meet girasoli for dinner that night,get a good night of sleep and have an uneventful flight to Bangkok on Sunday morning.
All so exciting, all so near!
And you know, the six nights we have to sleep here are not that bad, here is a photo of a beautiful evening sky on Maui.

Hi Candi, Your trip sounds wonderful and I'm sure you and your husband will have a great time. Everything on your list sounds like great! This week will hopefully fly by and you'll be on your way. I can't wait to hear all about it when you return.
With evenings like your photo, the six more sleeps really isn't bad at all. :)
Have a great six more sleeps.
