Dinner

Last night was nice. Normally, on Tuesday nights, a large group of us go to the Garcias' house for dinner. Jennie is the elementary school principal, and she and her husband Chuck have a lot of us over for a large, usually western meal. It started out as for just young single people, but now it would be hard to put a label on the people who come. About the only thing we have in common is that none of us have children here! Every Tuesday there will be around 20 of us who go and eat together.

But yesterday Chuck and Jennie were getting on a plane to Washington D.C. to attend their daughter's family weekend at college. We figured dinner was off, but then we got an email from another staff member inviting us to meet at 5:45 to be whisked off to an undisclosed location. Ten of us came, and we all piled into her songtaew-style truck (benches in the back to sit on) and went to Il Forno, an Italian restaurant in downtown Chiang Mai. It was really good! They served pasta in a sort of thin tortilla bowl, and had delicious appetizers of lunchmeat and cheese, which are rare here in Chiang Mai. We had a wonderfully unexpected time of fellowship and great food!
