we are in southern thailand now, just returned to the mainland from a week trip to koh payam. white sand beautiful beaches...more fruity drinks than we knew what to do with. right now we are staying in ranong in a funky little bohemian joint for 120 baht a night. sooner than later we are headign down to the rainbow gathering. we've run into a few cats here who have seen the site and they say it is going to be quiiiiiite crowded. the site is meant for no more than 500 people or so, should be a pretty interesting scene. from the sounds of it this gathering should be very different in that the site is not remote by any means. its looking like we'll spend a week or two there and then head north for chang mai until our visa runs. daniel and i are havign a great time out here. dan is writting some really great music. mmmmm. peace and love to all of you back home. we miss you!
