March 31
Woke up to have early coffee with Sarah and Lee before their
departure to Phuket. We went to our
same-same, not different hotel (The Veranda) restaurant for “real” coffee. We have the best conversations with these
two. No one is looking forward to saying
goodbye. But, we are hopeful that we
will see them again in Bangkok. After coffee
we give each other hugs and head back to the hotel to collect the boys for
breakfast. We go to the same-same, not
different breakfast place and have omelettes, museli with yogurt and fruit and
pancakes…..yum! After breakfast, we get
on our swim suits and head to the beach for a while. Hudson opts to stay in the room for a little
R&R. We return to the room around
4:00 and then Annie, Hudson and I walk up the street to take some items for
repair/alteration at a tailor’s shop. We
return to the hotel just in time for Paulie to go out to retrieve our laundry
from the cleaners. We receive the first
of our “mento” moments courtesy of Lee and we strategize the funny images we
can photograph to re-post. We get
straightened up and packed up a little before we walk back the same-same, not different family
restaurant. We sat at the same table and
had a really good dinner after all of our practice with the menu
selections. We meander slowly home among
the night vendors and get back to our place in time to watch a little TV and
drift off to sleep to the not-so-melodious, very loud and rambunctious bar
scene outside our hotel.
