Flight Booked/Pin Out/Pictures

I did a video blog about a week ago, but didn't post it for reasons unknown (still on my youtube channel for those that just can't get enough robbyd).  A lot has happened recently, so it's about that time to update.

I booked my flight to Chicago a couple weeks ago.  I'll be in the U.S August 30th, and probably stick around for a while.  I'm not too happy about going home, but you can't always have things your way (so i'm told).  The ticket was fairly expensive, but I did manage to get the same airline which I'm happy about.  Decent amount of leg room, wide selection of movie/tv options, and usb port for charging my devices.  I still have no idea what I'm going to do when I go back.

I got my pin successfully removed from my shoulder which was nice.  However, I had to be in a sling again, and had some pain.  It's feeling a little better now, but will still be a while til I'm 100% (maybe a couple months).  I get the stitches out on July 24th, then I can start doing some rehab (not for drugs, but my shoulder).  My rehab coach is me and youtube, I think that's good enough.

I saw The Dark Knight Rises yesterday which was way before anyone else I know.  In Thailand it came out July 19th instead of the 20th and it's also 12hrs ahead here.  I won't ruin it in case you haven't seen it, I just like how I can see big movies before everyone else out here (was the same with Avengers).

That's about it really, just been getting out and about trying to enjoy my last days of freedom.  I'll leave you with a few pics from Doi Suthep, which is a temple up on a mountain here, as well as a nice sunset photo.

  1. Well glad you are making progress. Nice they let you keep the pin. Looks a bit like a coat hanger. You might be able to hijack old vw's with that wire. It'll give you something to work on when you're back. Be safe. Take care. SB
