Dear Friends,

Miriam  and Zev, my newly married friends, came to Thailand for their honeymoon.  Before returning to their home in Tzfat, Israel we spent a couple of days together here in Bangkok.  Most of their holiday was in the south of Thailand on the islands and on the beach.   Who can blame them?

Koh Chang: Jan and Joe and Chinese Tourists

Greetings from the beach!

My Bronx high school classmate and friend Joe F. is visiting from Los Angeles. We decided to fly down to the southern island of Koh Chang and spend a few days at the Koh Chang Kacha Resort and Spa. *

Before we left Bangkok, I phoned my friend Tu who works at an optical shop at White Sand Beach. On her day off, we three took a ride through the mountains to Bang Bao on the southern tip of the island. We wandered down the shop-filled pier and had a delicious seafood lunch at the Buddha View Restaurant. I chose a dish of fresh fish in a hearty ginger sauce along with a watermelon shake. **
