Vox Lucens

On my last trip to Bangkok, I was amazed at the local Thai delicacy coffee, made by street vendors with encrusted coffee makers and questionable condensed milk. I was reticent to try it at that time, being worried about pathogens (and I had seen it made, which isn’t a good start).

This year, though, the Sofitel Central has added that delicacy to their breakfast buffet. Ladies and gentlemen, I am hooked. Please notice in the picture, the condensed milk at the bottom of the glass, with a little sugar, and more condensed milk on the top, mixed in with a wondrously dark and rich–yet smooth–Thai coffee.

Perhaps it was a result of the caffeine, or the fact that others on the team were imbibing, but I am now proud to announce that I have eaten century egg. More to come on that experience when I’m not paying 17 Baht per minute for internet.

Travelling today (Monday) to Mae Sot, to minister. So far, your prayers are working–God has been unbelievable gracious to us.
