Last post from Bangkok - 28 weeks, 6 days in utero

Today we did not do much to materially prepare for our trip: we just finalized some bank stuff and picked up a few gifts to give to relatives of friends in Seattle. But we did a lot of emotional preparation - we spent most of the day at Pui's mother's place. We said our goodbyes to Pui's family and my cats over a couple of delicious meals and lots of conversation. There are so many reasons to like Bangkok and Thailand: the weather, the food, the people, the scenery, etc., etc. It's not easy to go.

Now I have one last re-packing to do, and then we need to try to get some sleep before going to the airport. Once on the plane, I'm thinking of obnoxiously singing "Up in the air, junior birdman!" at the top of our lungs for hours on end until we either get the front bulkhead aisle seats, we get upgraded, or they physically restrain and gag us. I guess laryngitis is a possibility as well.

It will probably be a day or two before our next post, from Icebox Seattle.

Good bye, Bangkok!
