Final Thailand Pictures

We spent one extra week in New Zealand driving around the south island in a campervan before returning to the US. It's the tail end of winter there, so we were bundled up most days. And we had to plug in at camp sites to get heat. We had thought we could park anywhere overnight out in the boonies, but the cold forbid it. Twice we roughed it without heat. Overall, it was a fun time. Good to decompress a bit after an intense six months. We needed to process still some of the harder aspects of our time in Thailand. The top picture is taken at Moeraki Boulders relatively near Dunedin. The remaining photos are of Thailand

Then there's our Thailand outreach team. Us in front of a buddhist temple stairs, Doi Saket I think. Team policy was not to enter any buddhist temples, but this one we got to see the outside of it. Notice the 7 dragon heads with 7 crowns at the base of the stairs. Kind of like Revelations, but where did they get their idea? Next photo is the almost finished mud library project from ChiangMai that BearHunter worked on for over a month. And the last is Calalily at the primary orphanage where she volunteered during those same weeks.
