We've arrived!!


Hey everyone. We've finally arrived in Thailand--after 36 straight hours of sitting in airports or on airplanes--seriously, we left flagstaff at 2 pm on Sunday. We finally arrived in Krabi at 5pm on Tuesday--which is 3am Tuesday Flagstaff time. To top it off, Isaac and I got stuck in the center of the center aisle on the long flight from Los Angeles to Taipei. That flight had a previously unannouced stop in Anchorage, Alaska! Wait, isn't that going the wrong way?
Why yes it is. It was one of those awful refueling stops when they don't let you get off the plane. Anyway, at long last we made it. One of the great things about the flight was that China Airways is really up on the technology. Each seat had its own entertainment station--your choice of like 20 movies, games, shows, music. We even played Trivia against the other passengers on the flight from Taipai to Bangkok. Just when you think you're smart you get your meager brain cells handed to you by some 16 year-old (estimate) kid. A rather humbling experience.

We were both a little jet lagged this morning --waking up at 2 am. We sprung for a nicer hotel last night in Krabi (<$20). It was nice with AC, hot water, a TV, and a little refrigerator. Now we are waiting for some shops to open up. Then its off to Ton sai beach and some climbing.

Glad yall made it safely. Not to be too dorky, but how are yall uploading all this- do you have some worldwide wireless set-up or using Internet cafe's? Plus, I want pictures, not picture, singular. Don't be stingy.
