Worry not

I know I know I know you are worried, lol. The cuts aren't so bad. My seat, however, is not happy with me getting on that bike and on such a rough terrain for so long ;) I'm quite sore just where I've never been sore before.

We're still in Ayutthaya right now. Waiting to catch a bus to head north. Before going to Chang Mai we are going to go hang out with a "gang of renegade monkeys" which I am pretty stoked about. I wish I had a camera yesterday for one thing; although the ruins were amazing, there was this huge area of just lush green tress with palm trees to the right and left and in the center amidst all the green were sunflowers. Beautiful bright sunflowers.
And you all know those are my favorite. Aside from plumeria.
WHICH ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE HERE!! I can't get over it! Beautiful white plumeria trees!! We saw the hott pink ones with yellow in them in the ancient city, as well. Oi! The scent of plumeria amidst the rain is unreal.

After chilling with renegade monkeys today (omg seriously...ah! :) ) We will take an 8hour train ride to Chang Mai: which I hear from Joe is amazing and seems to be so in the books.
The internet isn't as reliable out here now, so if you write and I don't write back: know that is why. BUT I love getting letters and posts! Makes me feel like people are following and care! :) And all the way out here, that's a nice feeling.

I'm getting plenty of water. And where we are, it's only humid and rainy a bit so it's not as unpleasant as it was-weather wise-in Bangkok.

I can't stress how beautiful it is here. Eerything is so so so green. But like...I've never seen this kinda green before in my life. It's a Thailand Green! :) I love Thailand green! :) And you become accostomed to, and feel endeared towards the dogs that just hang out here. Well, I have. :) I find myself enjoying the random bugs and sights and smells here: It's so different. They (the dogs)don't all look miserable and unhappy. I think becaus the weather here is much better. In Bangkok they just laid there and looked half dead.

Here it is a frequent sight to see a dog or two just chilling in the arms of a giant buddah or on the steps of an ancient temple. Watching you as if you are nothing new to them. I'm trying to facebook chat w/ Court, write emails, and write in my blog all at the same time. :) Sorry if my blogs are missplet or all over the place: I want to get as much out as I can and take care of as many things as I can. :)

So it's only been like four days or something? I can't believe that. I am so glad I had no idea what I was getting into, because it makes everything here so amazing and bodacious! ;) I can't even imagine what is in store. I will need to get postcards now and start sending those out! As now I have adventures! :)

Okay I should go. Maybe in Chang Mai I will have internet!

I walk around with my hand as if it were holding one out in England sometimes.
I try to send you all images of what it's like here when I am laying in bed about to sleep. I figure if I think of you all hard enough you might feel it. So if you get a flash of some amazing lush green trees, elephants, or monkeys: it's me. Or if you feel a big hug at one point, that's me too.
Loving and missing you all.
Seriously.

Kate: HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Facebook says it's tomorrow; which I think means it's today here! :) XOXO
