-Touring around temples in a tuk tuk
-Going into tailor and gem shops in Bangkok
-Getting eaten alive by mosquitos
-Stumbling upon a night market. Bargaining down a t-shirt from 350 baht to 200 baht accidently.
-Red light district. Haha. Don't worry, Mom, we were careful and didn't wander into any scary places.
-Floating market- a sea of tourists and knick knacks. Bargaining a woman from 100 baht for 50 tiny tiny bananas to 20 baht. Accidently. Apparently I'm getting good at this bargaining stuff. Enough to make my grandmother very very proud.
-Cobra show. A dude caught a snake with his mouth, a mongoose almost destroyed the cobras head, and when a snake got swung around the charmer's head, i spilled water all over Shaun trying to duck for cover.
-Eating pad thai, fried rice, mangos, and bananas for the last 4 meals.
-I keep thinking I'm spending a lot of money here. I blow through 100 baht bills really quickly. Until I realize that 100 baht is $2.50. I buy my meals for $3 each. Gotta love Thailand.
In the last 2 days in Thailand, I think I like it. The traffic is a little scary, as well as crossing the street. But Bangkok is absolutely beautiful at night. Twinkling lights everywhere.
Hopping on an overnight bus to Chiang Mai tonight. Prepared to be covered in DEET for the next 9 weeks. Whooo
