A little drunk in Chiang Mai

Haha. we a little drunk thanks to crazy arrogant aussie guy's Johnny Walker. no problems.
(ohh - unless yo a Maeroa student - in which case alcohol is bad and my sisters shoved it down my throat, u need to be prepared for peer pressure in life, even from those who love u most).

today we go to thai cooking and learn how to cook curry and spring roll and chicken and cashew and many more things, it was exteeeeeeeeeeeeeemely filling but you know im a hungus and that no problem! Teehee, the cute lady who took it was very fun. She tell jokes and is not so shy. She makes it fun , which is good for kerrilee since she start the day crying. weak weak, weak. geez if she can do the OE thing then i certawinly not going to have any probems! Anyway we cook and eat like Buddhas now we look like buddhas and we go shopping in the sunday night market. Was very spectacular sight from the third story of the strabucks building! heehee, that we were, that one of the only places where u no have to squayt over hole to go to tiolet - we love it!

then we come home ready for some good times but the dumb drunken australian ( who seemed very cool the day befiore when not drinking - not the lesson Maeroa students) started to pick fights with everyone. The thai guys who are on duty tat the moment come inside and pull out their wooden sword! Very hard core - very ex citing.
ok i try put on photos now for those who not like my commentary (which Aaron comments on being very good by the way - feel free to expand on his compliments, but understand i no he has ulterior suck up motive). : )
drunken love kisses to all xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

This is the wild jungle and the not so wild elephants. My elephant name Jheem. heehee.

3 Jones Girls in Chiang Mai

Sewadeeka!
We are back from the jungle and we no see tarzan : (
I show u some photos so u can see what we did see - u lucky because we haxd a hard 5 hours trekking to see these things. And despite the full body thai massage (or marsargeeeee - as they call it here) i do not feel any better! In fact possibly slightly worse. They stretch u in very strange ways and climb in between ya legs and sit on your legs when u lying on your back, very intimate but no so mantic!

Anyway the jungle was cool - we hung out with some villagers and some americans and germans and slyvinians (not from sylvania families - more near Portugal). Some villagers tried to get us down some dark alleys ( they ask if we want to go silly ) oh my God (or as the new saying goes : Oh my Buddha - My ma and Pa no can tell me off for saying that one). Very scary but luckily we have good villagers too! I teach them heads shoulders knees and toes , knees and toes song : ) And they teach me the names in hai so i turn it into the song - it no rhyme but they think i very talented - they very smart people here.

The children of the village all came round the fire at night and sung to us. Was very cute and amazing how many lady boys there were in the making . They say we have to sing to them so me and Lisa sing a couple and do the Haka - they had no idea what the haka was - neither did the americans and Germans - little disappointing but good that they couldnt tell how completely wrong we were doing it!

OUr guides were really cool and they make up songs about us .Very very funny but i guess u have to be there.

So today we going to thai cooking class and we gona eat good food all day - that is if we can master the cooking bit. Will keep in touch.
love to everyone xoxoxoxox

bangkok here we are!

Well we in Thailand! Been to Bangkok and done all the shopping and seen lots of temples and buddhas! ;Played with pete the piano singer; Ran away from indian who wants to read my fortune i think(Lisa think he want to read a bit more than that); Lisa sits on the toilets sideways; kerrilee locks us out of the room and we ride the elevators; we barter like crazy and it so so fun!
We learn the lingo and everyone cracks up at us when we use it! It funny but very useful!
Especially mi ow Ka (probably spelt very different) but means no thankyou.

Whitianga - Mercury Bay

Just returned from our week in Whitianga. Very fun time. Very good weather.
We did some swimming and fishing, some tennis and three man biking, some exploring and some marshmellow toasting on the beach.

Our last day ended in a fishing trip on a mussel barge. I won the fish comp with four fish to Gene's two. Don't let him tell you otherwise!
I get big snappy's. Gene and Jesse get mostly these things:

Whangaparoa
Weather and beach so much nicer in Whangaparoa than Waihi! Two swims in one visit and a burnt backside from my efforts in the sand. Me and Jesse made the best racing car ever!
