Thailand-July 13, 2010

Today, I was fitted for a tailored suit--that was quite an experience! Then I gave myself some time to recoup from the flight and organize my luggage--what a luxury! This evening I was taken for dinner by Principal Areerat (Sorn) to the very famous Somboon Seafood Restaurant. The food was quite delicious. I was amazed at how many people were moving about the city--walking, in cars, and riding motorcycles. The city is quite exotic! Many different vendors line the streets with all kinds of things to purchase, especially unusual food items. I am still having a little difficulty with the time change. Tomorrow is a big day with the start of the 60th Year Anniversary Celebration of Fulbright Thailand.

  9. In your presentation today you mentioned that it only takes two days to get a tailored suit. That means I could have a new outfit every other day. That is awesome! We should definitely adopt that practice in the USA.-Vanae Chapman
