Christmas in Chiangmai
the team was given 4 hours "off" at central. we were free to roam and some of us had really good teppanyaki for lunch :) and for the 1st time since we arrived in chiangmai, i got to meet up with birtz :) thank you for the 2 thai alphabets posters, birtz!
today marks the end of our puppet musical presentations. we put up 1 yesterday evening at crystal spring guesthouse and our last 1 at mae rim, before rushing back to chiangmai for a farewell dinner with bro nat & his family and our thai friends. i thank God especially for the wonderful opportunity to finally meet baby samuel...originally, i wasn't supposed to be able to meet him because kip was only scheduled to arrive after we leave chiangmai. but God answered my prayers to allow me to meet kip & baby sam by bringing them to chiangmai a day earlier! :)back at crystal spring guesthouse, sis pat gave us a sweet surprise. she bought hot-air lanterns for us to release...it was my 1st time releasing a pretty "orange star that moves"...yup, that's what it looks like up in the night sky :) this Christmas has been a really different one for me...nevertheless, i thank God for this wonderful experience of Christmas in a foreign (but-not-so-foreign-to-me) land. afterall, He gave me the privilege of Christmas with my thai friends for the 1st time since i've known them :)
Blessed Christmas, everyone...
