Liliana’s South East Asia Adventure

So the other night I went to see the night bazzar which was fun and crazy in its own way.  Lots of crafts etc to buy if you want.  It’ts not as big as the Sunday fair but big enough.  I was a bad person and while at the night market I had humus and pits bread from a guy who’d from the middle east.  It was quit good I have to say.  So today I took a thai cooking class which was lots of fun.  It was offord through my motel.  At teh moment I’m paying $2:50 for my room no hot water though I had to move from the one I had before.  It works the beds fine and it has a fan.  To be honest you don’t need more then a fan.  Anyway back to teh cooking class.  This other girl and I took a ride over to the other hotel they own and ended up being the only ones in the class.  We got a thai cook book and everything for around $20 or 800 Bht.  We got to choose what we wanted to make and then we wne tto the market with the theacher who has been cooking for ever.  The first dish I made was green sauce with mixed vegetables.  The second was a mixed vegetable dish with some kind of soy/ mushroom sauce.  The third was vegetables with Cashew nuts.  I’m having problems up loading pictures on this blog so you will have to ckick on Yana’s Travel Pictures to see the dishes I made.  I’m sorry but at the moment I don’t have the energy to explain all the ingrediants.  Maybe in a later blog.  Well in 1 more day I will take a bus to the Loas border.  My hotel Eagle Creek or whom ever they go through will take us there, house us in a hotel for the night and then we will catch a slow boat ride down to the first stop on our way to Lou Prubang.  That is not how its spelled sorry.  So far 10 people are signed up for that bus/ package and maybe more by  tomorrow.  Well I’m going to go eat now as I’m hungry.  When I write my blogs I’m a day ahead of California time.  Right now it’s 6:40pm and in California its 3:41 AM.    I will try and call soon.  Its a sad thing but in Thailand a lot of women are with westerners and especially with older men because they have more $.  From what I’ve heard these women have thai boyfriends and they don’t care because the men have gambling debts and need the $ from the westerners.  I guess both parties are happy the thai women and the western men.  Ciao
