Rice Grains

It rained this morning. I first discovered that because I found a leak in the ceiliing where water was dripping down on my nice rattan furniture. I think this is the first in over 2 months that we've had rain.

This afternoon I went to Ramkamheng to teach English at the drug rehab center. I stopped to get an iced coffee, and while I waited I saw a bottle of juice concentrate; I liked the name.:)

The guys were full of life and energy today--maybe almost too much to do serious studying. So we ended with a little competition between them--learning how to say the date. Ohmygoodness, I just sat there and laughed. They LOVE competition; each team cheered at the top of their lungs every time they got a point. I think I will need to continue thinking up fun ways to teach, or their interest level might drop.

After class, I took a motorcycle taxi to the bus stop, where I waited for quite some time for my bus. Ramkamheng is an area with a larger Muslim population. The two gals below were also watching for a bus.

I got off the bus at Lotus to do some odds 'n ends shopping. While there I happened upon my friend and neighbor, Dang, so we finished shopping together and then she took me home. She also bought me my supper.

Meatballs in chili sauce served with fresh veggies and herbs. Anyone want to help me eat them?:) I can only handle about half of this!

Now I must go do my Thai homework.:)
