yes we can

Hey everyone,
I writing on a computer that doesnt have all the right keys so its quite difficult to make an update but Im getting a lot of complaints about not updating. Also,the zs are ys and the ys are zs on this kezboard. It is a mess.

So reallz fast - I am in Thailand. I am with Mcgorty and Wendy and we are having a blast. We are north in Chiang Mai and Tucker is down south with some of our new friends we met in Bangkok. Hopefullz, we will all be meeting up down there in a few days. Bangkok was awesome. I doant know why i have heard so much negativity about that city. I thought it was quite nice and a cool combination of modern and ancient. We saw some amazing temples with Buddhas bigger than buildings! Also, my friend Juay lives there and he and his girfriend Ying showed us an amazing time and an amazing home cooked meal!

Since I can't write much now / I mainly just want to tell you all about this morning. We watched Obama claim the win as our next President of the United States on Cnn. It was definitely strange to be in a foreign country when something so monumental was happening in the USA. However,i can tell you..everyone inThailand was watching. Everyone. We sat at our hotel bar with another American and watched the acceptance speech. I will say, it was the first time in my life I have ever shed tears as the President elect made his first speech. I was moved. We are feeling patriotic here...and we are looking forward to the changes in the future.

The Frenchman that owns this hotel has informed us of a democratic celebration happening at a bar here in Chiang Mai so we might just stop by tonight and show our red, white and blue!
We will get into more as soon as we can..but update in summary: Thailand is awesome. We are safe. And, hopefully - so is America!

Raero, Wendy, and Matty
