For only 13 baht, we were able glide through the river on the ...

In a city like Bangkok, there is so much to see and do that the days speed by. For this reason, my blogging has lagged and now I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the things I'd love to share. So, I'm going to break from convention (a funny statement when I've only written like 5 entries), and ditch the play-by-play style. Tonight, I'll be much more random in sharing my observations. For all the specific activities I've done, I will upload pics later on when I am able to. I can honestly say that t...

Afterthat I saw a few parks, important monuments, went to the river where I debated whether anything interesting would be at the other side worth getting the cross ferry over for, grabbed a refreshing ...

... I don't as we dart in between buses, cars, and tuk-tuk's, to change lanes and cut corners, I know a little dangerous but what a buzz!
Why or why I decided to explore the sophisticated side of Bangkok in my cheap t-shirt and trekking sandals I do not know, we go to a spectacular restaurant in one of the highest buildings in Bangkok, with a 360 degrees view of the city. I fit right in with Bangkok's rich and beautiful! It serves the most amazing sushi and I ...
... two times as a tradition). Staked out a claim on a little bank overlooking the lake and just relaxed, reading and catching a little nap, while those large reptiles slithered along in front of me. I think that they're fairly harmless but I would check every now and then to make sure they were staying in the water.
About 3 o'clock it was time to head to the airport and begin my long journey home. I had an overnight layover in Hong Kong but thanks to the business ...

... in Thai cookery but I may be able to whip up a nice Thai green curry on my return, or a curried shrimp stir fry, or some fish cakes, or some mango and sticky rice. I even got a little recipe book to keep!
From Chiang Mai it was back south to start heading to Cambodia...currently in Phnom Penh but I will leave the Cambodia update for another day. Let's just say Cambodia is by far a greater assault on the senses than Thailand was!
