Greetings from a most stunning spot! We were in the first temple at 8 am, straight from Yangon, and the impact was breathtaking. Wed. we take the boat to Mandalay (12 hrs). Sent a letter by messenger to your friend.

Love, R and F

This is the life for me! A beautiful beach on a tropical island, interesting shopping, fine weather and no work. Tim and Tom are becoming masters of the 9 course dinners and enjoying everything as much as we are . We arrived here Sunday and will be flying to Bangkok on Friday. The boat cruise was very nice, we’ll probably come home that way! However, many more trips like this and we’ll have to wire you for money for the trip home!

Love, Bill
