I'm not sure what the problem is, cause I'm on the internet now, accessing the wireless network from the pool across the street. I'll talk (or try to talk) to the training center tomorrow and find out who supplies their internet. We are on day #6 now trying to get internet.
Otherwise the experience has been awesome. It's about 38-40 degrees daily with 100% humidity. We got a moped for about $850 and have put many miles on it as it is our only transportation for now.
The kids have been busy teaching english to the children on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and love it. The girls also go to youth on Friday evenings -- its all in Thai, but they love it.
Caleb is loving all the attention he gets wherever we go. It's crazy to see all these Thai women coming and touching Caleb. (It's like they have never seen a white kid before)...actually they probably haven't.
This is our house, which we pay $500 a month for, and it suits us perfectly. It has a nice front yard (as pictured) and it is 400 feet from the pool.
We are in dire need of a car. As it is we fit Scott and one girl on the bike, and sometimes Caleb too, and the rest of us take a tuk tuk (taxi as pictured). So you can imagine the safety issues as well as the difficulty taking our groceries home.
We are surviving well and we know that God has big plans for us here.
We miss you all! Love, the Groves

Thanks so much for the update!! We are so glad that you are settled into Thailand. Your house looks nice, I did not know that Thailand was so beautiful!! Do you need some Canadian Visitors? We are keeping you in our prayers! God Bless.
Sounds great!
I had you guys pictured in some primitive mud hut.
The moped looks fun!
