Tonight we ventured out to get drop-in massages and a good meal. While we were walking, the rain began. Within minutes it was a torrential downfall. We ducked into a small Thai family cafe to wait it out and eat supper. The rain was relentless, lasting nearly an hour. As we sipped beer and ate our curry a little boy about the same age as Maneekarn danced to the music booming from a vintage juke box machine that was as tall as me, and just as wide.
When the rain finally let up the streets were flooded, but once again, full of people happily going about their business. It was magical. I'm so bummed I left our camera behind.
We walked down the street and got really great massages. The perfect end to a wonderful day.
Tomorrow we will not make the same mistake. The camera is all ready to go.

I will keep that imagery in my minds eye! I hope the beauty of Thailand leaves a permanent impression on you two! Someday when Maneekarn is bigger you can all go back together and experience it in a totally different way!
