    Where the bum becomes a tap

    By bigpumpkin | December 28, 2007

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    What’s really nice about this little family holiday is that it’s not so little. Let’s see how much money the airlines made out of us….one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven…..and a half. Hang on! Tee paid full fare! So that’s twelve. Half a dozen people from Kuala Lumpur traipsing up to Northern Thailand to visit the drug capital of the world, the Golden Triangle.

    What’s really nice about it is that there are ample babysitters to entertain Tee - YAHOO!!!! If she’s not learning magic from Aunty Trina, she’s making a cardboard house with Tim from an old panetonne box or exploring the timber resort with her Nana. Even in the huge van that we rent on a daily basis, she has people to chat with other than me. I can rest my voice. Really.

    And I don’t know if it’s the weather or the air but my body’s feeling all achy. Maybe it’s the after effects of being ill and antibiotics but thankfully, we’re in a city where there are dirt cheap massages every five foot walk along every street path. Ahhhh…….I’m indulging, I am. Sometimes I have a massage twice a day despite them saying it’s not good for you. But at RM6 for a half hour foot reflexology massage? Hello?! Are you crazy not to haveĀ one ten times a day?! I had a two hour massage for RM40 the other day. It was swell. Believe me.

    Then there is the fooooooooodddddd!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness. Basil leaf, lemon grass, chilli padi, mint leaves, coriander, coconut, dare I say more? It leaves us in food heaven every single day. Except that after a very heavy dose of augmentin (1300mg per day for 7 days), chillies don’t go so well with antibiotics. What would you do if you were Thai and couldn’t eat chillies? I’d be sorry for you. So I spentĀ  a few hours of everyday sitting on the bog sandpapering my bum. Nuff said.

    Great holiday!

      Aiyo, don’t tempt me-lah with all the nice food descriptions. You know, Hong Kong has lousy spicy food selection. Their curry taste horrible, like mixing santan with a bit of yucky curry powder!!

      Oh I am envious. Massages, oh how I need one so badly. My body is so achy but that’s probably just from having kids eh or can I blame it on recovering from the flu?
