Wednesday ponderings

It sucks that I came at a time when Jana is stuck at work. She feels the same way, especially when I'm still asleep when she has to leave. We have evenings together and weekends- I just wish we had more time together! It's a whole new dynamic of friendship having to share Jana with Sorm. It's fine for the most part, but usually when it's Emma/Jana time, it's just the two of us except for the odd occasion of being social with others- Not the other way around. It's taking some getting used to. What makes it all ok is seeing Jana so happy here. She really is where she's meant to be. She speaks Thai with the locals at the fresh produce market and the cab drivers, she weaves in and out of labyrinth-like paths of large markets and streets, knowing exactly where she's going and she is just glowing. Probably a mixture of pregnancy hormones as well as being totally in love and just so darn content with her life here. I couldn't be prouder. Thailand suits her.  

Tomorrow marks a whole week away from home and already I'm starting to feel a deep pang of missing Shane. Great- two months to go.

Here are some view shots from Jana's balcony. If only photographs could capture smell, atmosphere, sounds, moods and feelings of being from an entirely different world. I am an alien.
