I have been VERY blessed with wonderful connections here. It's been years since I've been to a wedding in the States; and I've never attended the Jewish ceremony for a young boy's first haircutting at age 3. (Perhaps somebody out there can remind me of the Hebrew name for the ritual). But this upcoming week I'll be attending both. My new Japanese friend Aikiko has invited me to be her guest to a Thai wedding this Sunday. She'll pick me up by scooter at 1pm. I've been instructed to bring 200 Baht (a bit under USD $7) for a "red envelope" for the young couple. And next Wed at 5pm I'll go to the Chabad House for the Jewish ritual, followed by a celebratory dinner. Pictures to follow next week.
