We have decided that Lao was definitely the highlight of our trip. Who wouldn't want to laze around on a tube, drink BeerLao, fly off 30 meter high swings, and be a millionaire all in one day. Kathryn has officially left us for New Zealand and we miss her tons.........COME BACK TO THAILAND!!! 
I decided to rehash some of our trips events in Kathryn's honor. One night we were playing cards (asshole to be exact - sorry about the language but that's what its called). Kathryn had put herself in a very dangerous position. She had been president for the last few rounds and had one card left. We were all laying doubles hoping to surpass her one card. She finally layed down her card but then snatched it away as quickly as possible thinking she was making an incorrect move, and hoping that no one had seen her card. Becca and I clearly saw a 2 of spades, if you are unfamiliar with the game 2 trumps all other cards (by our rules). Kathryn kept the card pasted to her leg, ashamed at revealing her previous card. Becca and I played the game on edge waiting for any minute for her to play the card. We finished the game with Kathryn at the bottom still with her card pasted to her leg. She finally flipped the card over and realized that the card was a 2 of spades and the whole time thinking it was a 5 (which is a low card). Oh Ballywood......
Who is Ballywood you ask???? Well we decided that we would start calling Kathryn Hollywood since she always took the longest to get ready..........who was she putting a show on for,the Thai men? One night in Koh Pi Pi Kathryn was approached by a man saying "Pakistan? .......Pakistan? Excuse me miss are you from Pakistan?" We all knew that Kathryn was getting tanned but didn't realize that people were mistaking her for being brown (are you related to Rahul?). Hence forth she was called Ballywood!

Throughout Laos Ballywood insisted on carrying her water bottle around on her head. She insisted on being proper. I decided to take one for the team and shove her aside to knock her bottle off her head. She was not at all impressed and threatened to hit me in the face with her water bottle. Later in the evening I picked up an ice cream cone just before heading up to play cards for the evening. Ballywood was doing her usual ritual with her amazing bottle of water act, when she stumbled and the bottle tumbled off her head. With her cat like reactions she tried grabbing the bottle before it hit the ground, but instead her reactions were not
cat like at all and she ended up swatting the bottle straight into my ice cream cone...................... I cried like a baby and stared at the end result in dismay!

We will miss you Ballywood!!!
