Come along with Forgetta as she travels to the sea of red lotus in Thailand. Forgetta has an awfully hard time remembering important things so she ties string around her fingers.

In order to avoid the curse of the local villagers Forgetta must go on a journey of many steps to the sea of red lotus and gather slime from a rare blue frog. Will she succeed?

0:00.0	Welcome to Goop Tales, episode 67, for GEDA and the Sea of Red Lotus.
0:14.4	I'm Maria Kalinchini, and I'm the author of Goop Tales.
0:19.3	And today, we are going to take a trip to Thailand, a place that I went
0:25.7	many, many years ago, a beautiful country with beautiful beaches and clear blue waters. And there is a place
0:33.5	there that is called the Sea of Red Lotus. And it's actually not a sea. It's a lake, but it's so big it looks like a sea. And during a certain time of year, it's covered with red lotuses. So it's like you look at this lake and it's just completely covered with these incredible flowers,

1:12.6	You have to go there early in the morning from what I've read before it gets too hot

1:48.3	I love my listeners so much.
1:50.2	I love all of you.
1:51.7	And I really love it when you write reviews.
1:55.1	And so many of you have done that lately on iTunes.
1:58.4	And I just really, really appreciate it.
