Happy New Year & no one will guess what we did today.....

We had a quiet New Year went back to our rooms before midnight but did get to see some of the fireworks of course they are nothing like the Sydney fireworks and I think that the illegal ones at home are much bigger than the ones that were here......
So we have spent the day shopping again & the boys today went nuts. I think Dan ended up with 13 t-shirts  & 5 pairs of shorts & Ethan was not far behind with about 9 t-shirts....I got 2 tops and poor Greg ended up with nothing.....he is not a huge guy but he can not get anything that fits....and when they see him they shake their heads and say "no jumbo".....so much for being diplomatic........Even Ethan had to get a XL in some t-shirts and he is skinny at around 53 kilos and much taller than me.......We found a fabulous place today that was all wholesale as long as you brought 3 of something the prices were insane for 14 men's t-shirts we paid $48 so they worked out to be $3.42 each the shorts were about the same price each.....The boys really needed new clothes lucky they have got what they wanted. Grandpa won't know us as we come through that arrivals gate.....

We also had massages in the middle of shopping adventure and we are going back tonight to get another one, the boys just love them.....We were so lucky yesterday the boys went for a massage and Dan left his new sunnies there but he didn't know he had left them, we went there to see if they could get another massage  and the girl (well we are not too sure if she is a girl) came out with them....very, very lucky......
We are off to Chiang Mai tomorrow it's a 50 minute flight from Bangkok.....hopefully I can put some Panda & elephant photo's up in the next few days......

Power lines everywhere, it looks so  dangerous, we are wondering if your power goes out what happens do they just add another cable...

More power lines.....

The pink tarps are market stalls set up along the road....

Broom anyone....

This lady was cooking chicken feet in a cornflour batter then deep frying rather like KFC..

Not sure what this fruit is it was like a nashi pear in texture 

The boys shopping for the day...

My tops are on the right, I am going to get that mini even if I have to wear it....necklaces are for Chantel our girl at the bottom of the garden. 

Cute cakes at the executive lounge....

This is a outside the kitchen at a tiny restaurant near where we are staying, the kitchen is so small, they must just pick what they need as they want it....

This was the Middle Eastern restaurant from the other night, stainless steel everywhere...
