Well we are here. Su and I arrived on May 11th at 12:50pm in NY. So far everything is going well and she is adjusting well. Still very tired and wants to sleep most of the time but all in all everything is good. She has tried to get in to our car from the driver side a few times and stops once she sees the steering wheel.

Went to a few stores to shop for food but everything is PANG! Then I took her to a Super WallMart you would think she was a kid in a candy store. She said that it was like Tesko Lotus.

All the funny things that has happen with other member (Like the eggs) has happen with us too.

Now it is time to plan the wedding and then the AOS.

Thanks to all

Ray and Su

Ray and Su,

Welcome back To Florida!

We found the best Thai food store. It is called the "Asian Market". It is 1 block north of Lantana Rd. on Military Trail on the west side. Me and Wi go once a week. Also the best Thai food is at a place called Chiyo Thai Bistro, just south of Atlantic Ave on Military Trail on east side in Delray Beach. A very nice Thai family owns it and Wi loves the food there. They are very kind and I'm sure Su will be glad to speak Thai from time to time.

Have fun!

Brent

Thanks for all the welcome home cheer.

As of now everything is going well Su is adjusting well and having a good time just rearranging everything in our home. I can't find anything any more. It not my house it's her's now.

Brent thanks for the advice on a market to shop at. We have found a few Thai markets we can go to just down the street form us. Also a great Thai restaurant the other day when we were there there was more Thai customers then non Thais so what does that tell you.

Brent in a earlier post you said that you live in Deerfield Beach. Would that be South Deerfield Beach? And would Crystal Lake mean anything to you???

CJ once again thanks if not for your express service Su would not be here now. I hope everything is going well for you and Jum. Su sends her best and hopes to meet again soon. I think we are planning a trip up to SC to visit some friends in the furture It would be great if we can get together. Also our door is always open if you find your way down here.

thai2luv,

Friday interview? I had that possibility in mind when I decided to not answer 'next day'.

Actually, I can't say for sure that they never give out the visas the same afternoon. Maybe she'll get lucky, but plan on Monday.
