We are 2! A recap of what our Anniversary Looked like in Asia.

We are two! Last year when we turned one I told Dave over and over again "We are 1!" He thought I was nuts but it's okay because over and over again I have been telling him "We are 2!" 

Today I thought I'd share what our 2nd anniversary looked like in Asia. It was crazy and it was good. 

Our major fun event to celebrate our anniversary was by going to the Myanmar Embassy here in Bangkok to renew our visas. Fun, right?  

Here was our day: 

Alarms went off at 6:00am so we could leave by 6:30am. We got up at 6:30am and didn't leave until 7. 

I tried to get a good picture of us that morning but .... 

Take 1 - NOPE! I told Dave he had to move his hand off my stomach because people will think we are having a baby ... or something along those lines. Which we aren't, because I know some of you are wondering. 

Take 2 - Do you see our 'morning smiles' and we each have a small eye going on.

Take 3 - We are 2, with 2 weird small eyes still.

We left the house and our commute went like this taxi --> train --> tuk tuk (cried after this tuk tuk ride, it was so scary plus we majorly got ripped off) --> EMBASSY! We arrived at 9am which means it took 2 1/2 hours to get there.  

We put our paperwork in and paid extra money to get it expedited so we could get the visa the same day. 

Then we hopped on another tuk tuk (who did not drive scary nor did the driver over charge us) --> train --> transfer to another train --> walked. 

Here is Dave's commuting face! He loves crowds.

We then went to visit Zama, Pam and the kids. They were still in town and we had a box of goodies from America to deliver to them. 

They were so nice and took us to an Italian Restaurant called The Wine Connection. 

                            

Pam recommended the spinach cannelloni and I'm so glad she did! It was so so good! And I got to eat cheese. 

Oh and we arrived to the restaurant right as the rain started. While we were eating this happened. So much rain! 

After lunch they then took us to a really fun mall called Terminal 21. It's a mall designed to feel like an airport and each floor is a different country. Take notes America because Thailand has you beat on cool malls.

Here is Rome

Poor Kyron! She got smashed. But isn't this bike fun? 

When in Rome try their cool bathrooms out. 

No toilet paper? No problems. The Roman bathrooms have you covered.

And, while you are sitting on the toilet they have this handy dandy poster on the back of the door explaining just how to use those buttons.

Here is a picture of the France terminal.

The movie theatre terminal

And San Francisco! 

After our visit to the mall we had to commute back to the Myanmar Embassy. We took a train and then took a motorcycle taxi. I've debated taking one of these and just could never bring myself to get on one, until this day.

The drivers weave through traffic and are super fast. They don't normally offer helmets either but ... they are fast and save you tons of time in traffic.

Dave took pictures while riding. I was holding on real tight. I'm sure my Dad is not loving this part of my blog post. Hi Dad!

We arrived and got our visas. The motorbike was a short ride and wasn't as scary as I thought.

Then we started commuting back home but made a stop for coffee, ice cream and we bought dinner to take back with us. By dinner I mean I purchased two large pastries from Au Bon Pain. ;)

We had a really different type of day but it was really fun and the important thing is that we are 2! God has blessed us with marriage and we are thankful He has given us two years and hopefully many more!
