Then we bought some hot gourmet soup. I had asparagus & Leek cream soup and Jason had mushroom and broccoli! So good, especially because we bought some bread to dip in it. After we ate, Jason came over to me with a sheepish smile and said "I REALLY want to go here" and handed me a brochure to the new aquarium that was in the bottom of the mall (its a nice mall!) I asked Jason, "Well would you like to go to this aquarium instead of the one in Singapore?" He said "I was hoping you weren't go to ask me that" After much ado, I agreed (it was over our budget). We bought our tickets and noticed that it was right at the time when the shark feeding was supposed to happen. So we RAN through the whole aquarium until we found the shark tank. Nothing much seemed to be happening, so we figured we missed it, walked back to to the beginning of the aquarium and started our journey through the sea!
They have this special glass bottom boat ride where you get to be on a glass bottom boat on top of the main tank. We didn't see anything more special than if we had just walked through the glass tube through the main tank. But that's ok because I got to see Jason wear a really cool bright orange life jacket!
At the end of the aquarium, we came to an "aquarium car". It was a car that was filled with water and had gold fish in it. You could toss coins in there and Jason quickly deposited three. Here he is:
After that we came back and went to Khao San road, this is the road we are staying on and where many backpackers come to stay. There is tons to buy but Jason and I just got a banana & chocolate crepe. Mmmm.
This street is pretty cool at night, here is a picture of all the people milling around. Pretty busy place.
Today we are taking an overnight train down to southern Thailand. And then we are off to Kuala Lumpur on another train. So, it may be awhile until we can post again. Best case scenario, we can post in southern Thailand. Not that there will be anything to say....

Judy told about their evangelism experience in Kenya in Sabbath school today. Interesting. Do you have a place to do missionary work yet?
Train ride sounds better than a bus ride!! Love you, and God bless!!!!
You're right, Jason does look especially stunning in the bright orange jacket! I think it's the blue background that matches his eyes that really sets it off though... Banana & chocolage crepe's! Sounds good, but what I am really pining for is a terrific mall :((((((((((
Jason your hair looks very blonde in the picture! It strikes me a bit funny seeing you in an aquarium given all of the scuba diving you have been doing :) So glad that you are both back to feeling normal and can have fun again...Jason "buy the salsa!!" I will give you the money for it! Love you too and happy traveling!
jason you are looking so thin! i guess lean is the better word since you don't look unhealthy or anything. aquariums are always worth seeing i think. looked like it must have been a pretty cool one too.
Are there really fish in that car?
Being a fish Connoisseur myself, I must say that is the coolest fish tank I have ever seen!
