Two in Thailand

After raising three children and watching them graduate from college, Bob and Carol decided to leave the educational field and pursue a dream that had been put on hold for 35 years (since graduationg from the University of Northern Iowa). "Two in Thailand" is the journal dedicated to that dream - to serve in the Peace Corps. This is a personal blog. The opinions expressed within do not necessarily represent the views of the Peace Corps or the United States Government.

Family Reunion: Karaoke


After a busy day visiting the 4 schools where we teach, we settled into our hotel and discovered a bar with karaoke next to the hotel lobby. Karaoke is very popular in Thailand. It gives the worst singers a chance to show they have the right stuff to be the next "Idol". We thought that Thailand had some of the worst singers! We were wrong! The Blaisdells gave a new definition to bad singing. After three hours of listening to the "Blaisdell Sisters and Friends", the workers were glad to close the bar! We gave them a big tip to make up for the torture they endured. But the next day, next to the sign that said. "No Durian" was a sign that said, "No Blaisdells!"
