A little here...a little there...

Welcome everyone to my travels in Southeast Asia!

People

The people of Thailand hold up their end of the bargain when in comes to being the "land of smiles" I took a stroll down the beach yesterday to find a fishing village, and while i got the vibe some weren't too keen on my presence, most always smile back, and actually enjoy their picture being taken. But this i have noticed across the board for the most part. Smiles are an international gesture, friendly and connects us all. If you think about it, it seems to be the one human interaction we can all read, across the board without cultural confusion. It was interesting yesterday, as i was walking toward the fishing boats i noticed the the boats where anchored at different levels of the beach. Significant too. The tide here has a mind of it's own; well, at least in my opinion. It amazes me still how nature can be so beautiful, so powerful, gentle, soothing, and unpredictable (and that's only the short list).
