Tortoise Duty…only in Thailand!

Me Ra Koh

Happy belated Easter to everyone from the jungles of Thailand!

We’ve been here for almost a week, catching up on sleep, sun, lots of coconut shakes, Thai massage and Green Curry! 🙂 But the wildlife, the wildlife is blowing us away.  Every time we turn around, nature surprises us.  For example, meet Shway, our new tortoise friend.  She sleeps all day, but at 5pm she wakes up and heads out for a sunset stroll.  The kids have been asked to do Tortoise Duty in the evening to make sure Shway doesn’t wander too far.

I LOVE that they have Tortoise Duty.  Hilarious!  Only in this corner of the world!

Many more stories and photos to come this week!

p.s. Tomorrow, meet a few beautiful moms and their babies who were brave enough to go on TV with me!

p.s.s.  A BIG thank you to Lynda Kennedy for all that she generously shared during the Ask & Learn last week!  Girl, I heard you ROCKED IT!!  Thank you SO MUCH for your time and big heart to help other women get off the ground!!  Love YOU!

    Welcome back! Wasn’t sure about you ever returning again- but so happy that the positive outweighed the negative. This is our silver anniversary year of living here and I know well the pros and cons. We’ll be leaving our home in Chiang Mai this week to do a Kids Kamp down that way with the Moken Sea Gypsy children on an island. We, too are excited to get out on the ocean and into a whole different world with the kids.

    We are so happy that your family is enjoying our home in Thailand. We truly appreciate the great energy that you impart on the house. We look forward to the day we can actually meet. We are in Alaska now watching the river turn from ice to water again. You would love the light here in the north.
    ENJOY the peace, ENJOY the nature, ENJOY the friends!
