We have a two month break from teaching, and it is so cold and drab, that we spur of the moment flew to Thailand for a week of basking in the sun, oh was that lovely. We rode elephants, and zip lined through the jungle, and stayed near the night market. Foreigners were everywhere who spoke our language. Heavenly.

We came home to cold weather, a broken lock on our apartment, and couldn't get in. My computer is having fits, slow and not easy to get on the Internet.
