almost like coming home again to find a skyskraper instead of your house

last night we hit the krabi night market for dinner. oh how we have missed thai food, i believe in all our years of traveling we have never encountered better food than the tasty dishes they make here in the land of smiles. here is a few shots from our evening at the market. i really like that she calls her stand "big mama pancake". zoe had a tasty nutella/banana pancake from her.

then today we rented a moterbike and drove into ao nang the town thomas and i lived in 2000-2002. it has changed so much, you can hardly recognize it. there is a mcdonalds and a buger king and it about three to four times the size it was when we lived there. though we did run into a few people that we knew way back when. we were looking for our old friend daum, but he was still on tonsai, another beach so we decided to take the boat over there tomorrow, and have a nice day at the beach today. zoe practiced swimming between momma and pappa, and buried pappa under the sand. after a few hours relaxing at the beach we headed over to the monkey temple so zoe could see the monkeys. we were not there 10 seconds when one jumped up and stole thomas' coke. we really did not expect them to take a coke can, we knew they have been known to grab stuff. but this was a bit of shock, and then we watch as the monkey then proceeded to try and drink the whole coke. so much for trying to maintain the balance of nature. zoe did really enjoy seeing the monkeys though.
