Travel Log Part 12
Sunday, March 11, 4:45pm
Today has been rough. I hardly slept at all last night - the house we were staying in was really hot and it sounded like there was some major construction work going on outside my window all night - still not sure what that was about.
I tried to call S this morning but I couldn't get through. I tried again this afternoon, but the only phone in this hotel is broken. I was quite aggravated. I miss communication systems.
We toured Sukhotai this morning, visiting more ancient ruins. It was actually pretty interesting and we had an excellent tour guide. One of the funny things about going on tours here is that before you can tour the real place, first you must see a model of the place you are going. This is true of most places we've toured: hospitals, factories, ancient ruins, etc.

Tonight, were having a dinner party. I'm too tired to think about a dinner party, but I'm sure I'll manage to put on a happy face.

This resort has been nice and relaxing. I got an awesome Thai massage today. The party was kind of weird. They dressed us up in traditional Thai clothing - they were pretty, but everyone else was wearing jeans and T-shirts, so we felt out of place. They are SOOO in to karaoke here and tonight was especially bad. We're getting tired of being leered at by creepy old men. Not that all the men are bad - most of them are nice decent people, but there's one in every crowd who does not realize that young women are not flattered by their attention - just weirded out.
