A very special young girl, Kaesha, gave two very important mascots to me before I left. I would like to introduce these little balls of love and thought, or as I like to call them fluff and fluffier. Seen here in down town Bangkok enjoying a much needed rest over some juice and watermelon from the night market.

They had quite an adventure taking the train to Ayutthaya, the night bus to Chiang Mai, and even stopping at a fun fair on the way.

One is to see me safe on my travels, the other is for another little girl at Hope Home, Joy.

Kaesha knows all about these special children, and already plans  to make flapjack at Aunty Helens cafe when I come home. She asked that all the money made goes to Hope Home.

Dear Kaesha, you deserved a blog post all of your very own.

They finally reached their destination.

You made a little girl very happy as she stared into the googley eye, had her face tickled, and held onto the softness that is Mr Fluff.

Thankyou for raising some very special hope and joy.
