finally left Yasothon, after saying goodbye few times to the youth thinking that will b leavin earlier, but keep changing plans. took at 6am bus to Mukdahan, and took a boat at 930am and got here. it's always interesting that two countries r just minutes away, divided by a border - whether a bridge, a river, or just a road, but they are both different. there's still similarity of course, they share some similar words in their language, most border-lived people can speak bilingual, etc. but oh yeah, the stuffs ain't that cheap after all! should hav bought more snacks from thailand before crossing. after converting the prices, a small pack of milo is about rm2.00, well, at home probably it's only rm1.20. Besides that, it feels really good to visit Vahid and Kavitha, whom I never really got to know them well, but just the fact that they are Malaysian pioneers in this small simple town, brought us to their home/kindergarten, it was very heartwarming, seeing the kids running around, and their daughter and newborn boy...
p.s missing rendang back home! :-)
