We have been back in England for about 2 weeks. It is very different from Thailand. It is Spring here now, so the first leaves and buds are growing on the trees, but many of the trees have no leaves on. It rains a lot. We even had snow for a few days. It has been very cold. In Thailand it is about 34-36 degrees. In England it is about 10-18 degrees.
While we have been at home we have been spending a lot of time with our families. My house is about 20 minutes drive in a car from Nick's house, so it is easy for us to see our families a lot. We have also taken the train down to London to see some friends there.
Today we are waiting for some friends to fly to England to see us. Teacher Nigel (the old sport teacher) was coming to see us. Our friends can not get here because we have a big cloud of smoke, ash and rocks high in the sky over England. It has blown on the wind from a big volcano in Iceland and it is stopping all the planes from flying. If a plane flies into the ash, it can make the plane engine stop.
We are getting ready to go to Africa. We go in 2 days. All our clothes are ready. We have had to buy many medicines because it is easy to get sick in Africa. I am very excited but also a little bit nervous. We are going to see lots of amazing places, people and animals. We are also going to jump out of a plane, this is what I am most nervous about...everybody knows I hate flying, and I have to go on a really small plane!!
We miss Thailand a lot, and have been worried about all our friends there. There is a lot of trouble in Thailand because of the red shirts. We hope everyone is ok. We miss our friends and all our students. I also really miss the food!! Food is quite different here.

Dear T.Tanya,
Nice to hear from you!!!
I showed Sorapat your blog and asked him to read by himself.
Sorapat is taking a summer course with football and swimming classes. He's much darker this summer.
It has been very stressful this summer because of the red shirts. Luckily, they did not yet move to silom areas as they announced. Hopefully, this situation can be resolved soon.
Have a nice and save trip to Africa.
Enjoy and Keep in touch.
Sorapat's mom
Glad you are ok. I am happy that Sorapat could read by himself. We are going to try and write every few weeks, but it is difficult to get to the internet, we have been in the middle of nowhere for about 1 week!
Please take care with all the trouble. We are always thinking of our friends and students in Bangkok.
We have updated the blog, hope Sorapat gets chance to read it.
