Day 190 – Christmas Party

Today was spent preparing for a big party here at the English school. About 60 people attended. I helped painting a large wall covering of Santa Claus and helped prepare some food (put jelly on a lot of bread). I also sprayed some fake frost around the glass on the front of the building, so it looked like it was really cold inside. In fact, they turned the air conditioning on maximum to try to make it feel like winter inside. The party invitations said to dress warm so it was a good thing I still have my heavy winter coat, hat, and gloves. I got some laughs wearing all of that stuff here when it feels close to 100 degrees F outside.

The party went well. Plenty of kids around. Over 100 wrapped presents were given away and lots of food was served. The school closes for the next two weeks. So that means Yu is free and we’ll be visiting some other places in Thailand soon.
