Okay, so I promise the delay in posts is not only the fact that lounging around on beaches is making us lazy. It's also that the place we've been staying for the past few days is hard to get to, so the internet speed is only 28.8 (very slow) but also works intermittently while being almost prohibitively expensive. Regardless, we apologize for the delay and will have a full post up with pics in a couple of days when we move on to Phuket.
For now, we are onTon Sai Beach, while is a very cool beach off the coast of Krabi that featuring amazing limestone cliffs that go straight up 1000' from the beach below. The cliffs also provide for one of the best rock climbing scenes in Southeast Asia. The only problem is that it is 91 degrees out, so climbing all day hasn't sounded all that fun, so we've been snorkeling instead. Things are mostly good, but Carrie has caught another bug and is presently down for the count (but its not as bad as the time in Chile). Otherwise, we are happy but are beginning to miss home for sure. We're glad we still have time to see a few more things (as well as learning to scuba dive and going on an elephant trek), but we are missing our loved ones, friends, and pets at home very much (as well as our home itself). Our life at home is looking better and better with each passing day, which we have come to realize is just one of the great things about traveling for a long period.

Hola,
Now...how can you be missing home in such a beautiful place???!! We have been gone about a month longer than you guys and I have the earnings every now and then....but I am not ready yet. However, it is probably different when you actually have a home to go home to. If we still had our house....I bet I would miss it. You never told us much about the full moon party! How crazy was it? We head for crazy in just 10 days....Carnivale in RIO!
Carrie:
Sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I hope you are back at relaxing and learning to scuba soon!
I understand missing home, although... I don't really remember what that's like right now. I could really use a vacation, although you and Betsy with your blogs are keeping me entertained and hopeful that some day I can have some adventures too. Heck, sitting in the hot tub with your mom in Indiana would be a wonderful thing!
Get well soon! Dave, thanks for taking such good care of Carrie and loving our special girl so much.
Love, Evie
Hi Everyone,
I'm up! All is well. It was only 36 hour bug and it wasn't too bad. However, we are still on Ton Sai where the internet is slow and expensive. We move to Phuket tomorrow and hopefully we'll be able to catch up with all our internet stuff then.
Love to all, especially to the constant commenters: Betsy, my mom, and Evie.

Mmmm-mmmm, wet and rainy here, you don't know what you're missing.
I took 4th out of a 17 person hold-em tourney. Beat Allen's straight with my full house and never looked back. Peyton Manning won the Super Bowl and a select few gamblers won a bunch of money when the opening kickoff was run back for a TD.
I am about to start on the second grocery sack full of mail. You can dump them out on Carrie's desk like the Miracle on 34th Street wehn you get back.
Elephant riding sounds pretty cool, as long as no rodeo action goes on. If you can't dhuket, phuket!
Good for people to know.
