The people here are lovely. Very kind and polite. Lots of smiles. Cute little kiddos too! When we go out on Saturdays with the Thai congregation, we take huge groups into the territory and flood it. We are reminded of the scripture that likens us to locusts...yeah, I can see why that is fitting!
A nice thing about Thailand is that you are never far away from a mini-mart or a 7-11. Don't laugh. I'm being serious! I have really come to appreciate 7-11's here. First of all, walking into one is like walking into a refrigerator, which is oh so refreshing on a hot and humid day (everyday here). Also, at these 7-11s and mini marts there are all sorts of interesting snacks and cold drinks for very cheap. Do you want potato chips that are bacon and seaweed flavored? What about dried squid strips? Or perhaps kiwi juice with jelly and collagen? No? Ok, ok...what about some iced coffee and a toasted ham sandwich? 7-11 has it all my friends. It is a common break spot out in service. There is one picture in this post that shows us on break with many of the Thai brothers and sisters, but its at a family run market, not an air conditioned one.
Kal's still looking for monsters in the back room. Thanks Jake...
