Sunday, Time to Return to My Home in Ayutthaya.

  It's my first big regret of my trip.  Last night I was out enjoying the warm evening.  There was a woman with a crippled leg and a child, perhaps a year and a half old, who were obviously living on the street.  I watched her go into a  Seven-Eleven Store (there's a Seven-Eleven on almost every block) and come out again.  She walked near me after she left the store, she wasn't begging but I deeply regret not giving her some money.  What would have been a pittance to me would have eased a few days on the street for her.  An opportunity missed and I'm sorry.
  Tomorrow I return to school.  I'm really looking forward to it but a couple nights in bed have been good for what ailed me.  How old is too old to sleep on a floor?  :)
