Long day but lots of naps and I am actually feeling pretty good.  This is more of a letting you know that I am here and alive.  JFK is just that... The passengers on the flight almost all had jet back hair and spoke something Asian.  I sat between some folks going to the Philippines for a wedding.  The Asian veggie was the best I have had but I did get up and do some of the chi gong kicks in the isle for my little legs were crammed.  There was a very short stop in Korea.. I longingly looked at the Duncan Donuts as I ran the length of the Airport.. going from 70 on one floor to 48 on another was about 1/2 mile.. When I got there.. I had 10 min. before boarding.  This plan was smaller and I sat next to a turkey farmer from Toronto who will be in Asia for a month.. and his big goal is to really  enjoy the full moon ceremony.. if you don't know.. you can imagine.. and i hoped that he would remember.. but he said that it was the experience.....
I got through customs ok and they did not question that I have no idea when or where or how I will be leaving in 30 days....I will write down how much money I can get for I had to run the card several times.   Sadly the bus services has been cancelled.  I think I will try the skyway.. that will be an experience with a 45pound duffle and my back pack.  so I had to cab which was ok..although I had a metered cab that did not use the meter..so 500 baht..   the Smile hotel... with  cold water sink and a hot.cold toilet show.. and a very small room is located on an alley behind an alley...but   at midnight.. it was very quiet and the the front desk said.. first floor...he must have a grandmother.   I pushed the stuff around a little and it is now 1:18 and definitely time for a Chung...;).
The only event for me that will be long lasting is.. the bug spay.. at the last minute I put a swirt bottle into my toiletry stuff.. and now I can tell you ...nothing will be biting me regardless what I wear.   I took at the stuff out of the toiletry bag and sorted it on the floor after I washed it... and the other event.. Bonny...be mindful.. there is a foot step up to the sink/bath area.. and my vision did not notice.. so .. I examined the floor from close up and personal.   There is wifi in the lobby..so tomorrow I will do more...   i have turned off the connection for the phone.. but I got some messages today.. my room is $12 and the messages will be $24... love you all but you are not worth it.. use bonnywithy@gmail.com...   and now it begins and another beautiful day in paradise...b
