As everyone else tends to spend their summer weekend on the beach, we left our apartment early Saturday morning for Dewey Beach, a three hour drive from Washington Metropolitan Area. Around 10:00 AM, we reached the main artery that leads to the three famous beach destination in Delaware, Bethany, Rehoboth, and Dewey beach. With everyone else on the road, the last four mile stretch to our weekend destination was a bottle neck. About half an hour later, we arrived at the hotel lobby to check-in. Our room was not ready, so we decided to have lunch at nearby restaurant before spending the rest of the afternoon on the beach.

The idea is to have a relax and achievable goals where you get to have fun along the process, using SMART which I learned from work as guiding principle, I came up with the following: Learn Thai language. Thailand is a place that we both can agree on to live as a second home in the near future. It is short hop to Burma and has many centers where you can spend long retreat to practice meditation. The standard of  living is quite affordable and healthcare has improved over the years. So staying in Thailand for two to three months this year will be a fun way to pick up basic commands and learn the language.
