More from Wat Arun

You may be able to tell that I absolutely loved our evening overlooking Wat Arun. In addition to the beautiful view and calm of dining on the river, it was nice to have a guest visit that we actually know. Erica worked with Sam in Hong Kong and it was fun to catch up and show her around our new city.

Me, Sam and Erica.

Wat Arun

Had a lovely dinner on the Chao Praya river tonight with our friend, Erica, who is visiting from Hong Kong. I haven't ventured much to the historic district since we moved so it was fun to enjoy a different vibe and an absolutely gorgeous view.

ABC Dinner

We went out with our team last night and had a delicious Japanese dinner - and lots of Asahi beer and sake.

From left to right: Divya (future principal), Sam, Bally (founder), me, Sean (Director of Studies for HK centres), and Johnny (BKK owner).

We enjoyed 2 of these enormous sake bottles.

It was such a fun night despite starting out with me losing Sean. After work, I put him on a motortaxi to the restaurant and tried to tell the driver to wait for me to get one (I now know the value of the phrase ror sak kru ka - "wait a moment please"), but Sean's driver drove off. Luckily I had told him the street to go to so I was able to find him eventually. All's well that ends well, as they say :)
