Whoa Spicy!

We thought we were doing SO well! Although we'd been warned that the spicy food really was spicy, Sean and I had both been tolerating it really well - and loving it! Unfortunately this streak of good luck ended last night when we ate at a very nice Thai restaurant close to our apartment. We ordered three dishes; one familiar, two that were new to us. Well, maybe the staff were just playing a joke on us Farang (a friendly Thai word for Caucasian tourists), but this food was HOT. We were sad and a little embarrassed that we couldn't finish the delicious-looking dishes but we were both sweating and basically breathing fire. I think the waiters had a good laugh at us! Check out my sad face and our leftovers in the photo.



The fruit juices, on the other hand, were perfect! Mine is pineapple and Sean had a strawberry-kiwi shake. Can't beat the fresh fruit around here :)
