New Year in Thailand

Make a Smilebox greeting

Last night was Esso Thailand's Safari Family Night to celebrate the New Year. We definitely aren't in Kansas anymore!! So many things feel so 'foreign' to us still after 1 1/2 years. You just don't see dried squid and a whole pig on the menu at a family day in the states! The funniest part though was their introduction of Mark at the event, they made him come out behind a safari drape and they said a lot of stuff in Thai about having a 'special' surprise!! That was Mark-what a hoot!! They wanted him to do some posing with the 'tigers' but he kindly refused, said a few words through an interpreter, wished everyone "Swadee Bee Nai or Happy New Year" did a couple of 'lucky draws' (that's what they call raffles in Thailand) and enjoyed some roasted pig with Ethan and I.
