Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – 46 days to go!
I gotta say I’ve had enough of the down pouring rain. This Oregon-girl left it behind because of the rain…. For the first couple of days I was staying positive about the change of pace and climate, but four days straight of this nonsense is starting to give me a little cabin fever and grey…

R is always on the lookout for good food and good beer. So, we had passed a sign for Weissbier (Wheat beer) a few times on our nightly rides. The other day, R decided to check out the menu and see if it was any good. Well, Weissbier and Wine Restaurant is a cute little…

_Cross Fire (Alex Cross)_ by James Patterson
_Cross Fire (Alex Cross)_ by James Patterson Well, I downloaded this book a while ago and wasn’t sure if I had already read it or not. Then, I did a search of my posts (comes in handy!) and found that I HAD already read it…. So, no need to rewrite about the synopsis. Since I…

Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – 50 days to go!
Just realized that I missed writing yesterday as I spent it at the pool. I had meant to do some writing and work, but instead just enjoyed spacing out, watching people and relaxing. It was a good alternative. 🙂 Today is rainy, so I have no excuse not to get some things done. Unfortunately, I…

_11th Hour_ by James Patterson & Maxine Paetro
_11th Hour_ by James Patterson & Maxine Paetro So, it’s possible that I may have to return my attentions back to work or something as I’m plowing through books like there is no tomorrow. Or, I should read more challenging books… 🙂 In any case, this was one of the better books in the Women’s…

_Kill Alex Cross_ by James Patterson
_Kill Alex Cross_ by James Patterson When on holiday, there’s nothing better to read than a James Patterson novel. It’s quick, mindless and entertaining.

Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – Quiet days
Nothing new to report. Just having some quiet days – reading, swimming, sleeping and relaxing. That’s what my two-week relaxing hiatus is for, right? Gonna start making lists/notes of things to do, though when I get back into the swing of things. Did go for a short run and walk today, which was good…. More…

Summer 2012: Phuket, Thailand – Days 2 & 3
I think I’m going to have to stop counting the days that I am here because I can’t really keep track of them anymore. It’s great when the days finally start to blend together as it means that ‘vacation-mode’ is finally setting in. Mostly, I do the days in the title to differentiate the posts…
