As Soon As We Were Up And About,

it was along to immigration for us, we had picked up Diana's new passport and had to get her visa transferred into it, the new building next to immigration in Soi 5 Jomtien has now been finished,
then time for a bite to eat for Diana, at the Surf Kitchen on Jomtien Beach Road, I had already eaten, so a slice of Diana's garlic bread for me and an ice coffee each,
Mark called round between the showers then we were off,
courtesy of the Secrets taxi service to the China Garden on Soi Lengkee,
roast duck and pancakes to start,
followed by a selection of starters, 'Cheers!',
and very nice they were too,
how to make a mess in one easy lesson,
then our main course arrived,
special chow mien,
delicious!
finally a cup of tea for Diana,
I know I have mentioned it before, but the design on this cup and teapot looks so much like it has been produced by the Clarice Cliff pottery,
a two cup pot,
then home and feet up for a DVD,
in the afternoon we watched Lost Treasures of the Ancient World: Empires of the Americas, the DVD highlighted the two great American societies of the Aztecs and the Incas, I had thought that both of these societies ritually sacrificed hundreds of people, some willingly, every day, but it appears it was the Aztec's that made this a daily ritual not the Incas, a gem of a DVD,
as it was part of a DVD set I bought we watched again The Day the Earth Stood Still, it looked much better in BluRay, but I still stand by my original comments, the original was much better than the remake, with that it was late so we were off to bed.
