Silver Lining Award

Good:  Yet another massage.  And a movie.  Our first.  It was so fun to get out the camcorder. Have you seen it yet?  If not go to youtube and put in "Loveduck goes swimming in Chiang Mai."

Bad:  Only one more day in Chiang Mai :  (

Surprising:  Little did I know how much I would appreciate Maya and Kalin's expensive toy when they bought it. Last time we dealt with lice Kalin was in first grade.  We spent hours combing while they girls watched videos.  Now we have a Nintendo DS (like a Gameboy) and boy does in make lice patrol better.  Kids  naturally bow their heads when they play and it's on a battery so we can take it outside-the better to see the glistening eggs.  Do I get a silver lining award for this?

Tomorrow we leave at 9:00 at night and take a sleeper train to Bangkok.

You bring back memories of the girls coming home from the Philippines with lice. It took us 8 hours to nit-pick each one...I ended up in tears. They got sick of all of the videos. Now we have gotten much more efficient (they have had it three times now.)

I say chop all the hair off...much easier!
