After 3 months, I think the roof is finished on our playground at school. With my limited Thai and inability to stand around watching them while they're working, I am only left to wonder what has taken so long. The likely answer? This is Thailand.
In any case, I'm so glad it's up so our students can burn off some energy while here without also burning their hands/feet on the scorching ground/equipment or getting sunburned skin. They obviously love it and it really is fun to be able to run around with them.
Sam and I have been doing our own running around and making the most of this awesome city. Last night, we went to a new street (for us) and it was funny to be called out to like tourists. It's amazing how differently foreigners are treated in various parts of the city. We had a relaxing evening, walking around with a beer in hand, sharing food and getting a massage. Felt like we were on holiday and I'm reminded that apart from work, our normal life is basically a vacation. Feeling very lucky!
