Day 28 - Update from Bangkok

We just found out that the protesters are leaving the airport this afternoon, which is a good sign for the entire country. Unfortunately this has cost the Thai economy millions of dollars and placed a sad image on the country's tourism industry.

But from what we hear this is not over yet.... It seems that the election process here is very corrupt and has been for hundreds of year which is why these protesters do not think the Prime Minister should be in power. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks. I'll keep you posted. Again thanks for all the prayers and concerned emails!

Hi Jen!

Just wanted you to know we have had some pretty snow these last few days - not a lot but nice and soft. Thought that would cool you off in your 80 degree weather.

Have a good start to your week!

Love,
Mom
