Monday the Back is Back

2014 Thailand

January 6, 2014 Monday

Woke today with more of a stiffness in my back then before. And just when I was hopeful that this was almost gone and my back returning to normal. I have an Osteo-Thai massage scheduled today with Dao in the room above Wild Rose Yoga. I just love the energy of the building, and there was a yoga class taking place, so we could hear occasional comments like, “breathe…”. The massage seemed to help a bit, but I opted to spend a relaxing afternoon catching up with work in my room. I attended an early-evening elemental Yin Yoga class at 6, and it felt good to really stretch and hold the stretches for a good time.

Dinner at Kanjana


Many restaurants near the Sunday Night Market area are closed on Monday after being open later than normal on Sunday. Kanjana was open, so I had a very tasty mean of sweet & sour stir fry with chicken, steamed rice, and a dish of roasted pumpkin (the same pumpkin used in the pumpkin curry), and a banana smoothie (and there is my notebook on the left).
