Thailand!

We woke up at 4am and left for the airport on December 13th! Our flight left at 7 and we stopped briefly at the honolulu airport and then 10 hours later arrived in Tokyo! Weird thing was it was Tuesday(the 14th) at like 4pm! We basically skipped the 13th! We then flew about 3 hours to Taipei and had a 5 hour layover there! And finally arrived at our destination, Bangkok, at 3 AM... SO MUCH TRAVELING! but i slept seriously the whole time on the plane.. well other than one of the landings and about an hour and a half of watching like mike.. I didnt even realize i was tired! haha. At every stop someone would make a comment about how they were scared at some point because the plane was shaking so much... but i guess i slept through that too :P

The base here is actually SO nice.. The rooms are nicer than the ones in Kona! There is air conditioning!.. Definitely not used to that anymore! We woke up at around 9 and had orientation (not really sure why because were only here today and tomorrow) but it was fun! Learned a lot about the Thai culture! They took us to lunch at this place called the turtle or something? SERIOUSLY SOME OF THE BEST FOOD I'VE HAD SINCE I LEFT GEORGIA! SO good. I seriously feel spoiled here... but that'll end soon! We are going to nong khai to visit the villages.. As weird as this might sound i would way rather be there in the villages than here! That is where my heart is.

I am so excited!!!!

I love being in Asia.

The end of dts.

Wow what a journey it has been! Sorry I havent written anything in SO long.. They have been keeping us busy! But today was our last lecture day! Bittersweet for sure. Sad its over BUT SO READY TO GO ON OUTREACH! We leave in 3 dayS!!!!

Please keep my team in your prayers.. Our leader still does not have all her funds. I believe that God will provide though. Also, for unity -- so far we are the only team that hasnt had any bumping of heads or anything which is awesome! Pray that continues. I will try to update this if I ever get the chance while I'm over in southeast asia.

I will get email more than anything else though so please feel free to email me at RMCooley92@gmail.com

Have a merry christmas!!!

Blessings :)
