THAILAND

It's a loooong trip to Thailand. I was so tired.
We took a  car to Boston airport. Checking in the bags and took the plane to Chicago.
After 2 hours, we arrive Chicago Midway Airport but we have to take another plane to Narita at Chicago O'Hare Airport.

We took the train cross the town. It's the hardest thing in this trip but we did a really good job.
Kids help each other and be very strong. Finally we arrive at O'Hare on time!! Unbelievable.

We took the plane for 12 hours to Narita airport. Sadly that we don't have time to shopping there.
We had to take another plane to Bangkok for another 6 hours.

And finally, we arrived Bangkok! We're so smell at this point. Geroge didn't take a shower for 3 days.
It's a long trip. Kids met their parent and hug each others.
Lin was the only one who cry :P like we bet! hahaha.
Every parents said George looks fatter than before.
Hahahaha I'm so happy. He didn't believe me when I said that and now he's still thinking that I emailed parent to say that.







We was home at 3 O'clock.
As always, the taxi at the airport wants more money to take us to town. They don't want to do meter.
George went to Tourist Police Station but they didn't help. They wanted him to fill the paper and they'll send it to the airport. Police can't do anything with the criminal taxi. They don't want to and they're annoyed that George has a problem with that. That's why the plane to Bangkok was not full.
The first thing that tourist meet is criminal taxi. At last, we found a taxi that do meter and we put all the suitcases we had in 1 taxi. It's amazing!

Yesterday I spent all day sleeping. My eyes are so bright at the night time and I'm so sleepy at the day time.
I had a jet lag and I don't know when will it end. We woke up at 11 AM. go eat and I came home to sleep around 2 PM. George came home to sleep around 3 PM. and we woke up again 8 PM. hahahaha
What's a day!

It's a good time to go out and meet our friends and family.
We went to Tease Gallery but nobody was there. They were there yesterday. It's Oun Birthday party.
We missed it :(

Jane was talking about they're gonna miss each other on the way to Bangkok.
I think she's the one that gonna miss her friends a lot, also Erng but she didn't say it :P
Erng and Jane always stay together.

Everybody is gonna miss each other. It's a month that we lived together.
I'm gonna miss you guys too.



I proud of Erng. She was so diligent to use English. She tried to talk with Sarah and everybody. She always make me feel like ..."Aoww Woww"  and she was a big sister for Jane. 
She always talk with Jane's host family to make sure she's ok and didn't make any problem. hahaha 
That's cute. She's actually a little bit older than Jane hahaha. Erng takes thing so serious. George can't joking with her because he will make her confusing. You have to see when George taught Erng how to bowling. She moved her arm like a robot. Hahahaha By the way, Erng is kind of in fashion. She love to dress pretty.



Linn and Jane are the big eater. They ate everything we have.
Jane is too young to hide her hungry but Linn is not.
She tried not to show what she eat. While everybody is busy with something, she will bring something out and eat it. If we turn our face to look at her, we will got her! Jean is always teasing Lin.
She was worry about her weight but you know, she doersn't mind with what she eat at all. Jean always give her some high calories food and tell her about calories later. Linn love playing card. It's the her best skill.


Jane like to eat a lot. She spent all her money with food.
She eat everything! We have to stop her sometime. Everybody has fun with convincing Jane to eat something. hahaha It's always work! She has an idea that she is the most beautiful girl in the world.
We're so sick of it. 


Jane is so young so she is the one that George and I taught her a lot.
She gets mad sometimes and then she forget it.
I can see Jane is improving a lot of English skill.
She was so shy and had a hard time with understanding at first but in the end of the trip she is always joke around with George. When I was teasing her in English, She can explain the truth to George. She's teasing Erng in English with George. It's kind of hard to survive in our group without English. 
They're gonna tease you! 


Baifern is a mother hen. She is kind and mature. She takes care of everybody like their mother.Erng and Jane love her because she's never teased anybody. (Actually, she's sometimes tease Jane but she didn't know that)  
 didn't recognize that we've ever complained anything about Baifern (also Linn). They're too good to be kids. 


Jean is the Joker. He makes fun with everybody, everything with his stupid joke.
Sometimes it's really not fun but we have to laugh a little bit to cheer him up. He's teasing everybody.
He made me and George smile when we saw Jean gave his backpack to the girls and let them carried.
He sat in the seat and let the girls stand. What's a man! Hahahahha

He's really worry about his look, his weight. He's be careful to eat food and love to eat vegetable. 
He's also love to cook and help in the kitchen. His host family told us that he's a man when he was in their house.
He tried to help the girls to get thought home sickness. He didn't have one. 




It was really hard to be teenager parent. It's hard to keep them in the rule.
Sometimes, you have to be very stick but can't be toooo stick. Sometimes, you have to give them freedom which actually not really freedom. :P Sometimes they're annoying and make you have to be mad.
Sometimes they're so innocence that make you laugh.
These kids have make me confuse about having kid.

And even we complain a lot, we want you guys to know that you're really good kids.
I think that's why they take the trip with us. If they're bad, their parent wouldn't let them go.

I think I'd have so much fun if I can be friends with them.You're fun and full with joke.
So please keep in touch. Bangkok is not so large. I think we can have lunch or meeting together!

Packing Day

We spent all day packing and preparing to go home.
Kids were waiting for the day that they don't have to go out for long time.
We didn't let them stay home because it's only 7 days in Boston so it's better to tired because of traveling hahaha.

George and I took the train to rent a car. I didn't want to go but I afraid that he will be lonely so I went with him.
It's so far and I had a headache :(  I really want to stay home... in bed hahaha

The car was really big. I like it. We stopped by at supermarket to buy more carry-on bags.
We didn't have enough bags for all stuffs that we bought and the bags that the kids brought with them were too small. It's almost not enough for their stuffs! 

We came back around 1 PM. I cooked lunch. We ate and then took a nap. 
Everybody were sleeping at that time hahaha. They're so lazy. 
George and I didn't done with shopping yet. We know too much people so we went outside to buy more souvenirs. I didn't want to go either but I did go hahaha.

We came back around 7 PM. I cooked dinner and sandwich, pancake for tomorrow.
We're gonna leave around 2 AM. to Boston airport. 
After 8 PM. I took a nap until the time came. Danny woke us up. I was the first passenger who came with all the bags.

Quincy Market, Pin Bowling

It's raining all day long but we're still go outside! It's our last day in Boston.
We actually had a plan to go the park near by the Newbury Street but because it's rain we had to change our plan.

We went to Quincy Market. It's tourist area so there're many thing for tourist.
There're so many kind of food. We ate Sandwich for lunch and  clam chowder.
Clam chowder is a famous food in Boston. It's a delicious soup. I like it, also the kids.

After eating, We let the kids walking around the market by themselves.
There're 2-3 places near by. George and I were waiting in Cheer restaurant.
It's a place that they make it from famous series.


I saw the kids walking around in the rain (Don't worry, we made them wear a hat)
Erng came back with Godiva Chocolate Shake and Jane came with a box of Godiva chocolate.
Lin and Fern bought nothing! They're such a good saver kids.



We went to Faneuil hall together. It's a museum about America.
It told all the story about America in the past. I was surprise that Jean seems to be interested about it. 
He curious about Indian and American. George gave a lot of detail about American History.
It's kind of same like Thailand before we became Thailand. We had many different group of people and we fight each other. finally, we become country. Same like America :)

We went to Central Square to continues shopping. 
George bought some books for the kids at school. Linn bought Fasion Design book.
We spent like an hour in the book store and the kids started to complain again! Such an old people. 
I think I'm a big complainer but they're bigger complainer. 

We found second hand cloth shop. I like it. I want to buy it all!
It's a shop that people bring their old brand name cloth to sell.
The shop will give them money when they sold their cloths. 
It's cool!

After that we met Sai and had dinner together at Redbone BBQ.
It's famous restaurant in Boston. We ordered a lot of food. No actually not, but the plate were really big.
Food was tasty! I like it. I was so full.


It's not too late to go bowling so we went to bowling.
It's not a normal bowling, It's pin bowling. It's a lot smaller and the ball is also small.
You're not gonna find it in anywhere else in the world.
It's only in New England. So it's good that the kids have a chance to play it in Boston.
It's kind of Boston culture hahahaha.



We played 2 games. It took 1.30 hours. and then we went back home.
Kids really like it. They had so much fun joking about their play.
