The Thai people are very friendly. The food was awesome and
everything is cheap. Saw a few live,
local musical shows at a local bar. I’m
amazed how quickly 5:30 am comes when you are in a club. It never felt like I wasn’t sleeping a lot
but then hey good morning to me.
Enjoyed two cultural experiences which is short for tourist
traps but both worth the visit.
1. Siam Niramit: The must see show in Thailand and the stage
is certified by Guinness world records
as the highest in the world.
Amazing costumes and music. I was required to camera check my camera on the way into the actual show so I was only able to get a few shots at the outside performances before the real show started but you get the idea.
and
2. The Floating
Market: The floating market is about
1hour and ½ outside of Bangkok. You rent
a boat and float through a number of waterways while being accosted by over
zealous vendors. Every price is
negotiable. Do it once and then you will
never need to go back.
Traffic jam
I used a cab driver that just happened to learn all his English from watching John Wayne movies and talks like john Wayne all the time. He thought that I was a real live cowboy, since all cowboys live in Colorado.
One night in Bangkok:
Near the end of my time it got kind of old having so many
ladies and lady boys try to molest me for a few dollars(baht) Very sad that this is how they have to try
to support their families.
Next up Maylasia and Kuala Lumpur.

Floating market! I missed that when I was there years ago. Glad you got to experience it. I think Thailand is my favorite place ever. The beauty, the exotic experiences, the friendly people ... and let's be honest, the food seals the deal.
I agree Kir
I think Thailand is my favorite place ever and yes the food is unreal.
Loved your pics from Paris. Welcome home and where to next? I'll chase you there.
