No marking this Sunday! We took ourselves off for a special feast of reading and other treats at Vieng Joom Oon teahouse.

Intrepid Kerry on her first climbing experience at Crazy Horse. So proud of you, girl!

Our whirlwind tour with Andrea and Yian included this moment of serenity above Wat Doi Suthep. (Other moments included a visit to the fish spa, but that's another story!)

Happy new year from Owlie in Chiang Mai. This picture was taken at Sunday night Walking Street market (even though it was more like Walking-but-mostly-standing-still market today - it was so crowded!). The new year is a very important time for many Thais to make merit. They believe that by bathing this statue of Buddha with water, among other things, they will gain merit, good karma and blessing for the year to come.

Those khaki-brown dishes and tin-foil cutlery can mean only one thing: we're dining in Northern Village again.

Rainy season's come early this year. You can see the rain advancing up the driveway.

Not really sure what this fairytale coach is doing in the middle of Kad Suan Kaew... but then again, I'm not really sure what most things are doing in Kad Suan Kaew, most times!

Sometimes, ordinary life doesn't get more ordinary than this... the market on canal road.

Snapped at the waterfalls on Doi Inthanon. Tubing was quite popular, but it was also quite cold! I preferred to sit on the sidelines and read.

In the midst of pouring rain, this fresh hilltribe coffee loveliness was just amazing.

Pretty lilies. I wish I could remember where I'd taken this...

This is from our front garden. It really does throw out the most wonderful surprises.

Why, hello Mr Lizard. He was following me home.

Oh my goodness. We bought the fabric for my wedding dress today, at Warorot market. (With many, many thanks to Jeans for all the help, support and general hand-holding.)

Airport Plaza really seems to have the most random displays, sometimes. But the locals seem impressed.

Closing night! Lane, Jack and Algy cut loose with their director.

Gwendolen. How absurd to talk of the equality of the sexes! Where questions of self-sacrifice are concerned, men are infinitely beyond us.

Jack. We are. [Clasps hands with Algernon.]

- from The Importance of Being Earnest, with some added ham!

Opening night of The Importance of Being Earnest!

Here is one of my favourite scenes - Gwendolen and Cecily being extremely nice to each other, shortly before erupting into all-out war involving cake and bread and butter... not pretty!

Dress rehearsal! One long day from 7am to 3pm. How did we cope? I think Merriman's attitude says it all.
