Sawasdee Khrap
Moving into our new digs, or actually a condo (11th floor – 1brm, 2 bath, lg kitchen, living room, 2 balcony’s) – renting for now just to see how we like it. I am using “WE” as Tasanai and I have reconciled our differences. Thanks God that’s over. But between senility, trying to get the web thing going, travel and culture differences I swear I work harder now in retirement than I did before.
We should be moving in next week, but I won’t consider it accomplished till we actually do – you know how things can rapidly change – I’ll wait till we are in to give the address out – but, it will really be nice to have a separate bedroom to escape to either of our entertaining goes on late. In addition there are several great advantages:
- 1. There are empty studios still in the complex that can be used by visiting guests for about 800 Baht or so – that’s $20 a night – complete privacy and spectacular views.
- 2. On the 15th floor is a private pool , actually for the penthouse area but we will be included – very seldom used, so it is almost like having our own.
Cable TV and ADSL for the internet. Right now we have very limited TV, everything in Thai – so I don’t understand anything – except BBC World and that gets very boring ,very fast. Getting off the dial-up for the internet will be heaven, right now it takes forever to do anything on the web and forget trying to down-load any files —— for that alone I really look forward to the new place.
Well I have to buy another TV (we gotta have a home entertainment center) , dishes, bathroom and housewares so I don’t plan on taking any trips in the near future, but I have a lot of pictures and tales from our excursions so far this year to tide me over. I’ll try to show you some of the “Unseen” places we’ve seen so far – I am sure your will like them.
And If I am peaking your interest about coming to Thailand, we are adding a new section – “Bird’s Tours” to the products we offer — he has some great tour packages in addition to specially designed private tours – please check them out. They should be listed in about a week.
Gotta ge ready to move
Ciao
