Quote of the Day - in memory of my Aunty A -
When you set out on your journey to Ithaca,
pray that the road is long, full of adventure, full of knowledge.
– Constantine P. Cavafy
My Aunty A. said, when I stopped one or two nights in Bangkok to buy warm clothing for the USA - "And Kyi Kyi, when you get there,go around everywhere."
