Well I am not sure if you all know the story-relationship Briel and I have with his original tattoo.... It goes like this:

Briel went to exciting Greece at the age of 17 with his friends from school.  After being on an adrenalin rush from doing his first bungy jump - ALL the mates attained a tattoo from some guy off the street.

Briel's tattoo was of a plain, rather crappy black dragon.  Which the next day when it was swollen and still VERY sore he requested an add on of a tiny red flame which the pain nearly made him pass out from.

He loved the tatto when he was 17.  Well as he got older and wiser he sort of noticed that the tattoo was not really such a crash hot design at all.

When I saw it I know I was not impressed.  In fact I have been longing-hoping that he would change the tattoo for quite some time.

Well lucky us that time has finally come.  While in Chiang Mai Briel found a tatto artist he liked.  Briel and I being into Chinese Medicine, Thai massage, Muay Thai - we did love things like dragons etc.  Just not his ONE.

Well this tattooist did an amazing design.  We loved it and agreed to the change.  The results are even better than the design.  Briel LOVES it.  I LOVE it.

It is the red dragon with the blue-green phoenix.  In a virtual/sort of yin-yang style.
