Birthday in Bangkok


It's my ninth birthday and we saw a traditional Thai puppet show about the turning of the Milky Way and how the gods got the elixir of life. There were three people to puppeteer one puppet. When the puppet moved, all the dancers moved the same way. The puppets are beautiful. One of the puppets is Hanuman. He's full of mischief.

Maya and I got our hair braided with blue and purple beads at the end. It took four hours for them to do our hair, but a little longer for me because one lady made the braids too fat and another lady had to start over.

I had so much fun and it's a birthday I'll remember.

Hannuman is right Skylar, you are a great writer. I enjoyed seeing the photos of you on your birthday. It sure sounds like it was a fun and happy one.

Happy Birthday to you!

Love the braids! A hanuman is a kind of Asian monkey. Was that part of the story?
