Ever heard someone say the need a vacation from their vacation? Well I needed a weekend after our weekend today. It was all really fun stuff, but it was all back to back, only spending enough time at home to make a mess of the place. But boy did we have fun!
Saturday was spent fishing with friends at Bung Samran Fishing Park. This was a fun family excursion and we were all glad we braved the heat to sit by the water and catch some whoppers!
The bungalow is staffed with 2-3 men that bait your hook (with a ball of bread crumbs, see above) and cast for you. We sit a few minutes, wait for the bite, and whoever cares to have a turn brings the fish in. The bungalow men then help you scoop the fish out of the water with their net and they remove the hook.
We pose for photos and then they toss him back in. Awesome!
The day ended at the Schottlers house with a bbq. 9 happy kids ate, played and watched dvds together while 6 tired (and happy) parents shared beers and laughs. Awesome night guys!
Sunday was church downtown and a great reunioin with a friend from our Oklahoma days. JR was in town for a few days and we were able to catch up with him and enjoy a great dinner out at the Hajime Robot Restaurant. Japanese buffet served by robots! LOVED IT! Order your food on the touch screen and the robot delivers to your table and takes away your empty dishes! We made sure he came plenty of times to deliver our dinner!
Bon voyage JR! Until next time!
