Jogging


Below are some pictures from our jogging route. We actually managed almost a full half hour today. It has been raining for 24 hours nonstop, so it's a bit cooler. Previously we've been afraid to go very far for fear of overheating. We got absolutely soaking wet in the torrential downpour. The Thai people in our neighborhood really got a good laugh watching a couple of farang (foreigners) jogging (strange thing to do) in the pouring rain (downright crazy) with a dog actually on a leash (what in the world is a leash for?)! We got lots of stares and smiles today! We leash Lacey mostly to protect the chickens and ducks running around since our neighborhood is small and very quiet (other than the fact that we look at the back end of the Thai version of Costco as our view).

Everyone has orchids, these surround a Thai home's address sign.

  1. Thanks for sharing your elephant adventure! Great to see your smiling faces. Easy to see everyone is having fun. Your photos continue to be amazing. I really appreciate the views of everyday things that are so different from the PNW: rice, banana groves, and long boats. No elephants here either--just Seattle auto traffic!
