Day 8 in Thailand

I'm sitting in an internet cafe (but there's no cafe) in Kantharalak, Thailand in a small room with 10 computers that must be about 110 degrees. I will pay 50 cents (or 15 baht) for an hour of time! When I first opened the blog, 1/2 of it was in English, and 1/2 was in Thai. Crazy!!! Today, we taught English in a private high school that was a trade school. This afternoon, we went to an outdoor Thai Boxing match between local schools. When we got out of the truck (there were about 18 people between the truck cab and bed), they stopped the match to announce that Americans were there. They told us to come under the judges tent and brought us chairs to sit on. Then they started serving us ice water! It's crazy to be treated like Rock Stars!
