Thailand or Bust (Day 1)

May 21st (Thursday)

The back story:
When Jed & I were in Cape Town, we thought it would be fun to plan another trip with Eric, Audrey, David and Amy. So Jed and I sent them them all this photo.

We were very serious about vacationing in Brazil and thought it would be a great time to go with the World Cup being in Rio in 2014 and the Summer Olympics in 2016. We hoped that prices would be low enough in 2015 to make the trip. So in the winter of 2014, we started trip researching. Everything was looking great and we had a lot of fun ideas of places to go and explore. We were good to go and Eric & Audrey were on board with us. So in January 2015, we went to book our flights and all the prices had almost doubled. We were back to square one.

After a few skype conversations and a few days of researching different parts of the world, we landed on Thailand and we all couldn't be more excited.

So on May 21st, Jed and I hopped in the car and headed down to Raleigh to catch our flight to LA.

Since our flight to Bangkok didn't leave until Friday, we had Thursday night to hang out with Tim and Wendy. It couldn't have worked out more perfect since Tim had just taken a job in Massachusetts so this is was our only chance to hang out and catch up with them. We had the best time seeing their place in Culver City, see how things were going in LA and just laughing. talking and being silly.
