sooo...what just happened? i'm trying to figure that out...while meeting up with people, trying to sift through the mound of mail my mom's been collecting for me, and trying to kick my jet lag. i still need some time to process all the lessons that God taught me through this experience, but meanwhile, i just wanted to share about the rest of my trip.

in ko samui, i took a day trip to anthong marine park, which is the group of islands where they filmed "the beach." visited some islands, went kayaking and swimming...so beautiful. afterwards, just hung out on the beach, splurged on a massage and facial at a fancy schmancy place ($45 for 2 hours!! well worth it), and on sunday, flew out to kuala lumpur.

it was soooo good to hang out with song and mike. they got married while i was in cambodia, so i came about two weeks after their wedding...felt bad about my timing, but they were such generous and gracious hosts. i hadn't seen song since winter 1998, when i last visited korea, so it was so cool to see her again. i had met mike once before randomly (pretty cool story, but i'll save it for a rainy day), so this was my first chance to really get to know him. we just hung out...walked around the city a bit, but it was just great to spend time with them.

so here's me and song...

here's me, song, and mike....

the petronas towers in kuala lumpur ( think "entrapment")

song and mike feasting on durian...they love that stuff!
