We were blessed with a late gathering time so some could sleep in, work out, explore, swim and have a leisurely breakfast. It was much needed to adjust to the time difference. We are 12 hours ahead of everyone in Wisconsin.
We gathered for lunch at one of PW's favorites S & P. We were thankful the menu was all pictures. Everyone tried something new. In the afternoon we had training with Boom and Dennis and met the team of wonderful Lutheran Hour Workers. We were welcomed by beautiful flowers again, coffee and eclairs. We have come to find out Thais are really into desserts! They all look amazing.
We had good opportunities to ask questions and to start to get a feel for where we will be working this week.
We had a short break where a few of us discovered "Thai Massage". It was in my book of 1000 things to do before you die and now I know why. :)

Then we were blessed with a wonderful Thai dinner made by the people of the church - Journey into Light. We also met the full time missionaries who teach ESL - Birdie and Dave. What a joy they are.
We have also found out everyone has nickname in Thai. We look forward to find out what ours are by the end of the week. We had a chance to practice "Fun with English" - the name of our workshop. We may have some refining to do but overall it was well received.
