Michael's family flew all the way to Viet Nam to see us during the winter holiday. We toured Saigon and then headed off to Thailand for some island time. On the morning of the new year, we flew from Saigon to Bangkok and Bangkok to Krabi where we spent seven of the most wonderful and relaxing days. We snorkeled, swam in the longest pool in the world, walked on the beach, played card games (Mark won every hand), ate street food, and read. A trip of a lifetime!
The holiday blues are setting in now that the Ianello's are gone. It was so nice to have many voices and personalities fill our apartment. Thanks Elle, Mark, and Carolynn!

The wondrous, winding pool with a bar and inflatable whales, which only Carolynn can wrangle.

A walk on Ao Nang.
Michael set his water bottle down and this monkey opened the cap and poured himself a cold drink.
Mike and the monkey
Mad for soda. These monkeys were not afraid of the crazy tourists.
So pretty! The ladies, not the monkey!

Hong Island-Where we were left stranded without food, water or towels (for fifteen minutes).
Showdown!
We took our very own longboat island hopping. I've been on a boat where they squish thirteen people in the seats, but this time it was a comfortable five.

Hello, Sailor.
The best beach corn, ever!
