Food Heaven

I've died and gone to food heaven. I love this place!! Most of my friends will tell you, given any night if given the choice for dinner, 9 out of 10 times, I choose thai. AND I am not disappointed here - A good kick of spice is added to the authentic version. stomach is still holding quite well!!

I'm sitting here in this massage parlor next to our hotel/guest house where I just had a killer 1-hour long massage for $6. Pretty awesome.

On Thursday we left our wonderful hotel in vietnam for Bangkok, Thailand! After a brutal 2 hour wait to get through customs, we arrived in Asia's "City of Angels" :) We spent the rest of the afternoon and all of today exploring the city - from eating thai noodles, corn, chocolate banana crepes and who knows what else on the street, to buying bargaining with the street vendors in the market to being TOTALLY blown away by the Wats (temples). I didn't really know what to expect, but it wasn't this! Again, we got a little carried away with the pictures.... but who wouldn't?!? After taking the ferry down the river, we saw the Emerald Buddha in the Grand Palace, the Reclining Buddha in Wat Pho, and about a hundred other Buddhas of all sizes! Fortunately there was a nice man outside the temple to transport us to the open market in his tut-tut (aka scooter with a little carriage in the back), where we bought tons of useless stuff :)

Sorry this is short, but we are hungry and waiting to go grab more thai food and tiger beer!! tomorrow we are off to Phuket!!
