I’m south of Thailand right now on one of the Islands.  I’ve been south here for over a week now.  It has been so cool but totally different as well.  I was in “Krabi” for a few days ( beach town in south Thailand) for three days and then our team went to “Ra Leigh” beach ( a cove off of the main land- only way to get there is by boat) which was so cool.  I got to hike to a lagoon there and have met some backbackers from all over the world.  Right now the team is here on “Kao Phi Phi”.  There is a small island in eye sight of us where they filmed the movie “the beach”.   Crazy.  I’ve got to meet different backpackers and am looking forward to more awesome conversations leading into my love for Jesus.  A big thing i’ve found out since i’ve been in thailand is thai boxing.  Its so big here.  Way big.  Well i’ve been able to watch some really cool fights here on the island.  There is a boxing ring in one of the reggae bars here.  We’ve met some cool people while there.  A few days ago was an amazing day for me.  I got to see the snake i’ve wanted to see for three years.  KING COBRA!!  There was a snake show the other night in Ra Leigh.   IT was at night and it was free.  FREE IS SWEET!!  I saw a jumping snake, a 10 foot python, and the King cobra.  There were snake trainers playing with each snake one at a time.  IT was crazy all the stuff they did and how close they would get to them.  It was so unsafe.  THe cobra was so huge.  It had to be ten feet long.  I was so surprise how big it was.  Whats crazy during this whole show is how all these snakes were just trying to get away.  This was the tiniest stage on the beach at night.  I was like right up there in this chair.  Closest one on my team to sit to these snakes.  I like Cobras.  LOL.  Well it was just cool seeing these snakes.  My quiet times with Jesus have been so amazing.  I finished reading Genesis recently.  What an amazing book and story.  Such an awesome book.  I’ve been going through Exodus.  It’s been so awesome.  I love Jesus Christ so so much.  He is so amazing.  The Lord has been teaching me the importance of spending time with him and how faithful he is with bringing people to me when i ask.  The water is so gorgeous here.  Swimming is so amazing.  The fish are sweet too.  I’m suffering for Jesus right now.  :)   I miss everyone and appreciate your prayers.  Praise the Lord.
