Last year on November 29th Chedi Restaurant was honored to host a dinner in support of the Hands Across the Water Bike Ride 2011. Ailish Gary and Davina O’Hara, who are two friends from Ireland working in Australia, organized the dinner. The girls were inspired to be part of the long ride from Bangkok to Kao Lak after hearing Peter Baines talk of the children from Bann Tharn Namchai orphanage.
