CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Your husband has an interesting name (from a Thai standpoint),

as one of the primary royal Buddhist temples (on the side of the

river opposite Bangkok) is Wat Arun (temple of the dawn).

Thai Buddhism (Theradada) has origins in Sri Lanka and some

of Thai culture & tradition has been borrowed from India.

Thanks to all; I almost can't believe it, expected to wait a lot longer.

We will have known each other for 6 years in Feb. 2010 so we are used to waiting.

I added this link (for Thailand, but others can just substitute their country when the table shows)

to my signature for all of you to play at home:

Days to interview - Thailand

It's ordered by days from petition sent to interview and the number of records is set to 411 for Thailand,

but you can substitute your country & the total number of records for your country.

Gratz and good luck! WOW, I will be in Thailand when she is doing her interview!!!

You'll be in BKK soon? Sounds good.

Are you going to spend a week or 2 or just collect the family & do a U-turn?

We met another VJ couple the last week I was there and they were very

helpful in sorting out some of the last-minute questions we were having

about the interview preparation. We've kind of lost contact since then

(they are now back in the US and it's easily said they are very busy).

They've been mostly absent from VJ since their travel back home.

Your kid (Chase?) looks way cool. You must be very proud.

Best wishes,

TD4Me
