Wow! This is my 76th blog entry since we've been in Thailand. I'll have to have a special celebration on my 100th entry. I'll start planning...

Thailand is flippin' HOT right now. We had some crazy winds from the typhoon that passed through but no rain. Now it's just hot, hot, hot. I'm not complaining. I'd take the sun over snow or rain anyday. December is supposed to be the coolest month of the year too...hmmm.

I'm so excited because we found a new restaurant in Salaya. It's a 5 min walk and it's really good. It's a Vietnamese place and the owner speaks english so he helped us with the thai only menu. This is soo huge! As of now, our restaurants are limited in Salaya. There's the Japanese noodle shop..but honestly I can only do noodle soups about once a week. There's the big Chinese restaurant but we always over order, the service sucks and we only order the same few dishes. Then there's our 2 lunch options, a wannabe (that's a cool word) western cafe style restaurant that thinks mayonnaise is the greatest ingredient ever and our choices vary from pancakes and omlettes, to beef stew...no joke. The other lunch option is more expensive and we only go on Fridays for their set lunch menu. That's pretty much it! So this new place is really a huge find!

Schaubs is on skype....she wins over the blog entry. Peace.
