During our stay we had endless amounts of delicious Thai food.  There is nothing like fresh seafood and Thai noodles on the beach in the evening after a day of fun in the sun with your dearest friends.


Carmen is 15 weeks pregnant which is incredibly exciting and lead to lots of late night conversations about the life changing aspects of becoming parents.
Every now and then it hits my that Carmen has been my best friend for 16 years!  That is pretty impressive.  Our friendship has survived - the rocky teenage years, getting our bachelor and masters degrees, 7 years as roommates, 2 trips to Afghanistan and many more adventures.
