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.

The Best Christmas Gift Ever!!!



Our son, Rion, and his wife, Anne Marie arrived in Thailand to help us celebrate Christmas! We spent the first three days in Bangkok before travelling to our site on Christmas Eve. The next evening, we exchanged Christmas presents. We then spent 3 days travelling to our four different schools (see below). We were graciously treated at each school and Rion and Anne Marie could really sense the level of respect that Thai people can place on visitors!! After the school visits, we flew Rion and Anne Marie to Krabi (near Phuket) in southern Thailand as a anniversary gift where they will spend a week before returning to Bangkok where they will meet us and do a little more shopping and sightseeing before returning to America.
