-rode down the chao phraya river and saw many temples
-met monks, lit a candle and left a lotus for the buddha
-played soccer with a two-year old Thai girl...I'm so much better than her
-saw a four year old with a mohawk
-heard a "bar girl" sing Achy Braky Heart on Kareoke (this was so awesome, I'll give more details on it later if you want)
-rode in a Tuk-Tuk
-saw the Grand Palace, trimmed with solid gold
-met an englishman with few teeth and dredlocks who just got married and just survived a heart attack at age 36
-saw a Thai man crash his moped, watched people pull him off the road and set him on a bench (again, more detail available if you want it)
-had a beautiful bargirl ask me if I'd take her to Chang Mai with me for the week...that was very hard to say no to!
-kept myself from getting tricked into a bus ride today. After things worked out for my trip to Chang Mai arrangements, I had a perma-grin for an hour or so
There is so much to talk about that I just put these tidbits for ya. There are things I've seen already that many would love, and some that people wouldn't approve of...but its so amazing to see a culture that is 180 degrees opposite of us. Things are great and I'll have another update when I am in Chang Mai!
Sawadee Kup!
