Friend from Seattle coming to BKK

Tomorrow, I’m meeting with a friend from Seattle who writes about Asian issues. He’s flying in today and we’ll be flying down to the resort town of Phuket in the morning. Some of you may recall that Phuket was one of the areas in Thailand that was hit by the Tsunami during Christmas time, two years ago. I’m not sure how it’s faring these days, but I will let you know when I come back! I think it will be a good getaway from the hectic-ness of Bangkok for a weekend. I’m going to LOVE getting some sun and a fabulous couple of days at the beach =).
