Photos

Here are our first photos... We haven't taken photographs of everything yet, so I will post some things here and there!

Aqui estao as nossa primeiras fotografias!

This is in Bangkok. We stayed at a hotel which was just next to the river. The photo on the right is the view from our hotel in Bangkok. Great, isn't it??? And the photo on the left is the view from the 'mini-port' next to the hotel. We also had a cruise on the river and we visited a temple (wat) during the cruise. We had arrived in Thailand the day before and we felt slighty jetlagged but it was great! At this point we hadn't visited our school or been to the town where we now live (Ban Chang - meaning 'house of elephants').














As fotos de cima foram tiradas em Bangkok a chegada. Ficamos num hotel que e localizado a beira rio. A foto da direita mostra a vista que tinhamos do nosso quarto de hotel. Fantastica, nao e? E a foto da esquerda mostra o 'mini-porto' que havia a frente do hotel. Dai partimos para um cruzeiro de 3 horas no rio e fomos visitar um templo (wat) durante o cruzeiro. So tinhamos chegado a Tailandia no dia anterior e sentiamo-nos um pouco jetlagged, mas foi tudo optimo! Ainda nao tinhamos visitado a nossa escola, nem a aldeia onde vivemos agora, Ban Chang (que significa 'Casa de Elefantes').


Mmm... coconut water!!! You can buy a coconut at the supermarket for about 20 cents of a euro (more or less 15 pence)!!!

Mmm... agua de coco!!! Aqui pode-se comprar um coco fresco no supermercado por 20 centimos!!! Uau!
















These are some of the other new hires at the school (Owen, Kim and Martin). We went out for dinner in Ban Chang and ate lots of (very!!!!) spicy food!!! Yikes!


Estes sao outros professores novos da nossa escola (o Owen, a Kim e o Martin). Fomos jantar em Ban Chang e comemos comida muito picante!!! Ui!!!





This is us enjoying a Saturday on the beach. The water is warm and the weather has been fantastic so far, although sometimes quite scary when there is a tropical thunderstorm. You wouldn't believe the thunder!!!

Aqui estamos nos a aproveitar um Sabado na praia. A agua do mar e quente e o tempo tem estado fantastico ate agora, se bem que de vez em quando ha tempestades tropicais com muita trovoada e muitos relampagos!



More photos coming up soon! Keep well!!! ;-)

Mais fotos a caminho em breve!
