Week in Thailand

On Sunday we flew to Bangkok for a week long seminar.  It was great to reconnect with friends we have made over the years there.  There were 83 people from over 25 different countries in attendance.  There were five of us from Vietnam.  We were lodged in a really nice hotel in town. Bangkok is an hour and 15 minute flight from Vietnam.  We were tired after the trip and taxi rides so Mark surprised me and ordered room service.  I think that is a first for us.  The seminar went from 9 AM to 6 PM each day.  We went to the Mall down the street from the hotel twice for dinner, once to a Sizzler, yes, even in Bangkok and then Mark wanted his pizza fix so the second night we ate at a Pizza Hut.  I really wanted to shop but was too tired, can you believe that, me at a mall and no shopping?  The conference ended after lunch on Friday and we arrived back in Vietnam around 6:30 PM, right in the middle of rush hour traffic.  That was not fun.  We again saw a motor bike accident that was right in our path.  This time the gentleman did not look happy but the other guy helped him pick up his bike and off they went.  I am now on countdown, only 15 days until we leave for the US.  I talked to my grandson Gavin on the phone this morning and he said, Grammy you are coming home on my birthday.  I said yes we would be home on his birthday, the 13 of April and how old will you be, he said three, then stopped and said no I will be four when you come home!!  Then he proceeded to tell me all about the flower he planted and it really is not a flower yet just a leaf but will grow to be a flower.  We are going to have so... much fun with them.
