The eagles have landed, IN THAILAND







looks like angela left her account logged in and now todd has all the control. Hello party people in the place to be. Our plane ride has finally ended with us landing in thailand.it is 10:30 in the morning here, angela and i just checked into our hotel. it is really nice. they gave us a king room on the corner of the building so we have a good view. The flights were nice and the plane from san fran to hong kong was incredible. we had our own tv, with games movies tv shows. all the new releases movies that still in movie theaters. the meals were prepared and presented to us 3 times during our 14 hour flight, they gave us ice cream. sooo nice. we had our first stop in hong kong, which was alot like a shopping mall. the entire main level was shopping in a macey's and then then upper level was a food court the likes i have never seen. it was huge. When we arrived to thailand we got off of the plane and went immeadiately to immigration and then customs. the second we stepped out of security s goverment lady insisted she was trying to help us, so she tried to sell us tickets from our hotel to some arty and guided tour for the king of thailand, which if we bought anywhere else it would have been 60 dollars, she was going to give aus a very special government rate od 20 dollars. now i have a pretty good patience for peole, when angela is really tired, this is not the case. she looked at me, then her, then let out a nice , aughhhhh, and then wlaked away. really funny if you ask me. our cab was a metered cab, this is very important mind you, because alot of these cabs are privately owned by the people who drive them, so they can make their own prices, metered is the best way. we watched some al-jazeerah tv before falling asleep in our suite with a king size bed. very nice. we shall keep you updated as our adventures continue.

thankyou to all of our friends and family for all of your love and support.

todd and angela



p.s. to our family, we have made it here very safely and we are trying to figure out how to do the international calling. should be getting calls within the next few days

Thailand one, come in...this is base control...come in Thailand one. Get ready for people trying to sell you stuff 24/7. You'll get use to it and have "your line" you'll give them every time. I already miss you both. And I wanted to let you two know that I'm going back to school this spring and I just applied two minutes ago!! woo hoo. I love you and miss you both. All of our love, Shahnti and Kyle Ryan
