Phew! Just got in from a full 8 hrs of shopping! Oh, yes, 8 hours! I went to the largest flea market in Bangkok and did some damage! I think I can open my own stall with all my purchases!

Okay yall here's a bit of a blurb about the first leg of our trip in Thailand - Banging in Bangkok... Twas definitely an assault on all the senses arriving in Bangkok... Arriving after midnight and having the humidity hit you so hard reminded me of our hot summers, but our hot summers in the middle of the day;-) I'm glad we've left the hustle an...

Spent the day sightseeing around bangkok - went to the Royal Palace, the reclining Buddha and checked out several Wats (temples) . didn't eat a thing all day, didn't even get hungry, think it is the wafting smell of poo that does it. although i have discovered banana pancakes - yum! later i hit Khoa San Rd - so touristy its not funny but i loved...
