Maybe by now you're finished with Ron's jacket? That sure sounds like a major undertaking! Must be nice, tho! I'd love to see a pic of it when you're finished! As far as the socks, I just finished the last of it in Bangkok, but didn't take a pic of it there as I didn't really have time while out sightseeing, and plus I didn't think Ron would appreciate his socks draped over Buddist temples and artifacts! Ha ha! Nor did I have time or the opportunity to drape it over the long boats at the floating market or the elephant that we rode, ha ha ha! But his socks did go to those places in my bag "just in case" I had time to work on them. I ended up finishing it up during the evening in the hotel. Just a couple more days here (we leave on Thursday), so will send them out to you soon. Hi Patti:

Well, funny that you mention that Matty! You must really be my son as I thought of something similar--being fattened up for the kill! LOL But in all seriousness, Marinel, there's a book written by the wife of one of the guys who was killed during the 2001 kidnappings. Apparently they kidnapped about 20 tourists and one couple was American. The wife survived to write a book about it (I'm thinking of getting a hold of it to read), but her husband got killed during a shoot out, I think it was. As far as I know they weren't fed fish and pineapples, but yams. So keep your diamonds and Rolexes at home. Let's go to Bangkok instead and go shopping! Holy mackerel! I should have brought more money and time with us! LOL You were absolutely right about Thailand. I would like to go back and take a better look around! There was so much that we barely grazed Bangkok. Okay, that's all for now. A bit pooped and need to get to bed. Marla Ha ha! Well, funny that you mention that Matty!

Your so funny Auntie Marinel! It might be fun to be kidnapped and fed fish and pineapples, but-- . . . Why else would they do that other than-- to fatten you up? Do you really think those turtles are vegetarian? Maybe, they feed off of-- fattened tourists . . . >: o Haha! Your so funny Auntie Marinel!

Heh! If they're going to feed you fish and pineapples while they hold you in captivity, would it be so bad? Your "holding cell" would be a sunny, beautiful beach.... versus smoggy, congested Los Angeles. Maybe you should start showing off that Rolex you received for Christmas!!!! Hee! Hee! You know.... the NEW, GOLD one with the DIAMOND encrusted bezel? Just kidding!!!! Hee! Hee! What a great trip — minus all the talk of kidnapping! Heh!

Marla, you're as good a writer as you are knitter, photographer, and health guru! :) Love Petunia in the picture. :) I absolutely will have to tell Ron where his socks have been because he will get a total kick out of that. Thanks so much again for doing that. I'm still not done with his jacket, but almost. Love the color on the socks. Definately masculine. :) This is a very pretty place (the water, oh my!). Spendy though, huh? yeeks. Travel on........ patti How beautiful! Marla, you’re as good a writer as you are knitter, photographer, and health guru! :)
