Bangkok, Thailand



Happy Thanksgiving (a day late!). We forgot about it until a couple of hours ago.

As for the trip...we headed to Bangkok on an overnight (Linda - note the neck pillow!) bus that stopped to change buses twice and also for a rest break (at 1am) for the driver to eat. But we made it! We have been occupying ourselves with wandering around and visiting Note. Note is the one in the picture that is giving Lily a traditional (Sak Yan) tattoo by bamboo. Oh, and Chris got in the spirit too and got his lebret pierced...it looks great...pictures to come!
Tonight we got a new camera after a bit of a search...but necessary none the less. It was weird being in this huge American-style mall with Starbucks, Guess, The Body Shop and the likes. A bit to expensive for our budget these days! We'll stick to the local markets for our clothes and such. Speaking of, we are heading to the enormous 'weekend market' tomorrow. There are supposedly around 15,000 stalls. Talk about overwhelming!

Enough for tonight!
