I took an easy day.  I went out to see where I was last night and it had folded up like a butterfly. My Bar was now in against the Wat wall and the tables all folded and it became a motorcycle resting place. 
The Smile, Khosan, or whatever is a Sawadee chain hotel with much of the same furniture and bugs.  This morning I did take a leap when a very large...we can call it a June bug or a Texas roach scampered about the floor.  He went someplace so I moved everything to the bed.  I am reminded that they have lasted through the ice age etc..and so I spent little time looking.  My cheap...250a night..so that is less than $10 does not provide breakfast.  I did pay to eat.. the regular stuff..pale toast, small "American" coffee, two eggs fried square, and jelly.  If you have been with me on the journey..you know.  The folks here are all over the map in age etc.  Appears to be some German teachers, a farang with a Thai woman and what appears to be their child. And many blond this women who know how to dance to distant music.  I walked the length of Khosan today and took many pictures.  I will have to decide how I am going to do this.  I am a commercial Internet and it is taking 15 min. to load the few pictures that I have here.   I sorted and picked out about 10.. It is 8:45 and this place closes at 10...I can not do it. Also, the keyboard sounds like a broken down auto since I have to bang the keyboard for the shift... I will do this blog in parts.  Had a great facial. I was the only one in the room and she took a great deal of time.  I also burned off much Karma re pain.  I only cried a little.  You just can't help it when what feels like needled is poked into the tend spots on your little face. When I came from the facial, I saw a person sleeping on the street.  You don't see this that much.  I liked the wall. As I took the picture, I noted that I was not alone..and then saw these little eyes looking up at me...This is such a typical child face.  I am struggling...and so there are pictures.. but not exactly where I would like them... I crashed at 5 until 7:30....felt great..So now I am hungry and ready for some grub and more looking. When I get back to the smile.. I will try to put in my Khosan faces..  and another beautiful day in Paradise.  An here is to you Monika...first OJ from the woman who also does the laundry

an Ode to OJ

Eleventh Day

 Wow, it is easy to slip into a similar pattern to what I had at home. I produced a plan to change many things - delete more emails, eat hea...
