Finding Nemo = Finding Heaven

Leah and I were so fed up with our trip to Laos!  We arrived at Udon Thani to find out that the next bus to Ubon didn't leave till 5 am!  So, Leah and I said our quick goodbyes to the girls and trekked off to the nearest Seven Eleven.  Oh how we missed those stores from heaven! 

We were in a foreign city and didn't know where to stay.  We hadn't planned on staying the night in Udon Thani, but we were forced to given the busing situation.  We found a really nice hotel.  It was decorated in Finding Nemo paintings.  It was like America!!  We hauled our stuff to our rooms and then went out in search of dinner.  Pad Thai did wonders for our hunger and then we retired to our room early, we didn't feel like exploring the city at all.  

God is so amazing.  He blessed us so much.  We were cranky from the long trip and the traveling situation.  But, we managed to find a hotel with awesome hot showers with great water pressure!  I took a really really long shower.  And, to our amazement, some of the channels on the TV were in English!  Leah and I watched the news and music until our eyes wouldn't stay open any more.  We were so blessed!  We were able to watch about the elections and such, we were so behind on everything!  God is good, he gave us a little heaven just when we were feeling down.
