Time with the girls in Koh Samui

Us girls hanging out pretending to be normal Americans. Yes, we ordered out for pizza that night!!! yay pizza. I know you cannot fully appreciate that, but pizza is a special thing in Asia and very rare I might add
Kate and me on the beach. We found some cool boulders and decided to take some photo shoots. Sadly, I had to leave early because my sunburn was getting reder.
Sarah (pink) and Kate (the head) enjoying getting to swim! The weather was amazing. Everyone kept complaining about it being too hot, but I just soaked it all in. Ok, maybe too literally. I had some red legs after all of this.
Ah, lovely Koh Samui.

What's going on here? Gen, Nancy, and me are getting impatient for dinner. Ok, I think it might be just me who was so impatient. Can you blame me? I was hungry!!!

yay! it's a Tuk-Tuk. These were the amazing vehicles that we used to get around Thailand.
Yeah, I don't know. It looks like a strange valentine's dance, but it's a little early for that. I think it was some traditional Thai dance or something, but they performed for us at our conference site hotel.
This is the view from our hotel. Every evening we all ate together on a roof of the hotel. It was so clear and nice.

Finall In Thailand!

I got to walk through the streets of Thailand and it was amazing! So beautiful and cultural, and yet so westernized at the same time.

Ah, the first day out in Chiangmai. Many more to come! It is finally warm. It was insane to go from huddling by my space heater to walking out with sandles and a skirt. I loved it! I was totally made for the warm weather.

Spring Festival holiday

A night of great fun and good food. Our Chinese brother was gracious enough to cook us some delicious food. He is a great chef. I cannot compete with him. My friend Kate (the one in the big coat) came and visited us before we went to our annual Thailand conference. She did bring many warm things because Thailand was going to be so hot. So she is wearing my male teammate's coat in this picture.
