Dear Readers,
It has been almost two months since we came to you with an incentive to give towards our adventure, towards something fantastic, but also outside our budget.
We don't mean to wear you out in the asking, so if you feel that way, please read one of our stories instead!
We are wanting to do two fantastic things in Asia, and hope you can help us out a bit. First, we hope to spend one night on a traditional South China Sea Junk in Halong Bay, outside of Hanoi. Imagine thousands of towering limestone karsts, and the ribbed, wing-like sails of the ship. We don't want to miss it!
Second, we will have the opportunity to be "Elephant Owners for a Day," with a company in Thailand that, as far as we can research, treats their elephants as humanely as possible. The schedule for the day is at www.pataraelephantfarm.com. We would get to learn about elephants, to bathe them, to feed them, to ride them, and to hike with them.
Simply put, we don't know that we will ever be back in Asia, so we want to make the most of it! In lieu of financial support, we also like prayers, happy thoughts, and emails/letters from you. We so miss our friends from home and hearing from you all.
Love,
Alan and Gracyn
