Thailand!
I love Thailand! Especially the food! There is some noodle soup that is boring but what I like is……….Glass noodle salad! Surprising huh? Most kids don’t like salad. The salad had see through noodles, amazing flavor, lettuce, peanuts, sprouts, tomatoes, onions, pork and………….nothing else I can remember. First I went to Bangkok with the top most beautiful temples. The fanciest temple I had ever seen is the grand palace. If you type grand palace Thailand in google you will see wonderful, unbelievable, fun, cool, scary I mean beautiful, gold fun, awesome, Kung foo panda legends of awesomeness I mean templerific temples! Oh sorry templerific is not a word. Well I have a lot more things to say about the grand palace but I will tell you about other stuff now.
At the grand palace something funny happened! I did not like people taking pictures of me but now I do! Why? Because I found a little game from my friend’s blog! In China they got so much attention because my friends are quadruplets! There are five kids in their family, and one is in a wheelchair. Here is a picture of millions of people taking pictures of me at the grand palace! I have a super models life that is for sure! And if you ask me it is pretty fun to play this game! My goal is to get one thousand people in my pictures. Guess what? They never ever take pictures of my parents they only take pictures of Marie and me. This is how the game started. One day mom read me my friend’s blog post at goinganyway.net. It was the funniest thing! One day I saw a girl pulling me down on a stair. I was mad! Very mad! I pulled out my camera as fast as I could and took a picture of that lady with a camera. I won the game because she didn’t get a picture of my face, she got a picture of me holding my camera in front of my face.
We also went to the tiger temple! Believe me the tigers were not statues. I got to pet a tiger at the tiger temple, pet a baby tiger, and see animals running around! The animals had no cages! Don’t be scared please! The tigers and the bears are in cages. I went in the tiger’s cage to pet the tigers. But the water buffalo were not in cages! If you ever go to the tiger temple you can’t wear bright colors like red, orange, or bright pink. Kids have to wear non bright clothes and so do the adults. But only the adults need to be covered all the way to the knees. You will also need to cover your shoulders.
Next we went to Chiang Mai, another city. In that city I bought Harry Potter 1 and read the whole thing in three days! And then I bought the Harry potter two! I also have Anderson’s fairy tale book. I found that I really love reading. Anyway I will tell you about this city. My favorite restaurant in Thailand is Nature’s Way. The name fits with my blog. At the restaurant I had a wonderful pancake and a glass noodle salad. In Chaing Mai I went to a mall! The mall had a handful of shoe stores! And guess what? An adult shoe fit me! I must be big foot! BUT PLEASE!!! DO NOT CALL ME BIG FOOT!!!!!
In Chaing Mai I also cut my hair to my shoulders! I did not know cutting my hair would be so easy to take care of! And cutting my hair looks beautiful!
Anyway we also learned that street food in Thailand has a lot of MSG. Nature’s Way does not have MSG! That is one reason I love Nature’s Way restaurant. I went on a tuktuk, which is a car but with no doors. I read more than anything else in the day now because I love to read! Sorry, lets get back to Thailand. Okay! We also went in a night train! This night train was better than the Viet Nam night train. Well I think that’s all I have to say folks. Here are some pictures I took of the activities I did in Thailand.
This is my hotel room.
Here is the grand palace!
And here are some pictures of my life! Woo!!! Hoo!!!
This girl is taking a picture of me! YA!
Oh no! Not another one!
Stop I say! Stop!!!
I don’t like being a celebrity. 🙁
I might as well go home! Stop!
Well I will come outside and see if my fans are gone. Oh no, not again!
See what it’s like to be a celebrity? Well I am not a celebrity but I know a celebrity’s life!
Here is a video of my celebrity life!
Great post Emily. I love how your mind works! Lovely pictures and we can’t wait to experience Thailand with you guys soon!

I love reading your posts, Em, as usual, and I especially love your sense of humor and your fun writing style. I’m so glad you were able to try the picture taking trick that we learned from reading our friends blog. 🙂 It works like a charm! I’m also glad you are enjoying reading so much. I’m amazed at how much you have been doing. I love seeing the creative pictures you take and I love your new haircut. 🙂
I love your blog Emily. And your new haircut is very cute. It makes you look more grown up and even more beautiful.
Thailand sounds wonderful – the food… yum. I don’t like msg either. It makes my ankles swell up 🙁 Sometimes restaurants don’t tell you that they are using it – so it is nice that you have found one that ISN’T using it.
I would love to have visited both the ornate temple and the tiger temple with you. Such an amazing experience to pet a tiger, I bet. And the cub is so cute.
And I’m happy and impressed about you loving to read – and reading Harry Potter in 3 days! I read Harry Potter as a grown up, and so I couldn’t have attended Hogwarts if I were in the book. But you’re almost old enough to attend Hogwarts – just another year or so and you could go. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to read the Harry Potter books and be the age that Harry and his friends are. Which house would the sorting hat put you in?
I love to read too. Your dad loves to read… but I bet you’ve noticed that, haven’t you?
OK, your famous life is ridiculous! How clever to make a game of it. I wondered about a game with squirt guns 🙂 I wonder how they would respond to being squirted with water when they stare and take photos? LOL
Maybe you could try acting famous sometimes…. wear sunglasses, and pose like you are a very famous model or actress. Offer to sign autographs.
Or you could create a photo dance. Anytime someone want so take your picture, you do the photo dance.
What other games could you make up?
Can’t wait to see you. OK, forget my ideas on games for picture takers – because I’ll be bringing my camera and will for sure be taking pictures of you! 🙂
I didn’t know you had posted about Thailand. I’m glad I found it 🙂
I LOVE your hair. It is so stylish and cute. I can see why so many people want to take your picture. You’re beautiful 🙂 . I think it’s funny ..the game you are playing about people taking your picture.
I’m so pleased you like to read so much. It’s just hard for me to realize how very grown up you are.
I’m like your mom. I love your sense of humor and the fun way you write.
Love you lots.

[…] because of too much picture taking attention at the Grand Palace in Thailand, Emily made it a fun game by taking a picture of everyone who tried to take her picture. That garnered quite a few smiles and […]
