I won't be as "wordy" as my husband was yesterday! We are back to our cheap internet place and finished mapping out our trip to Burma (very important as the Goverment requires that info for our visas). We are excited to spend 28 days in Burma - seeing Rangoon and many places around Inle Lake).

We are really enjoying the laid back vibe of this city. We have a nice little place that serves amazing yogurt and fruit each morning. We also found a great cheap restaurant to get our northern Thai food (Khao sawy) - a dish similar to that in Burma. That being said we decided on pizza (over the expensive falafels!) last night...this is truely a cosmopolitan city as we had great pizza!

There are a tonne of "whities" here...many appear to be expats. We still aren't that social- i guess we really are newlyweds! We are both engrossed in our books and so the desire to explore has been a bit hampered! However, we are planning on a big walk later to see the Night Market and check out a few other sights.

We are looking forward to meeting with the Global Neighbours Volunteers! The trip with them will be really fun! Ted will get to build stuff and i will be the team leader for "Arts and Crafts" (I hear many of you snickering!).

With that I will sign off from here!
