Bangkok

This could be the best city I have been too. I really think it is going to be difficult for any city to beat Bangkok. Traffic is crazy and so are the taxi drivers, but the taxis are so cheap. Taxi rides to pretty much anywhere only cost a couple dollars. Today I was in a taxi for about 45 minutes and it only cost $2.

I had the most incredible Thai massage just now. It was a whopping $13 for one hour. It is supposedly some tradition passed down from the Buddhist monks. The other famous Thai massage is from prostitutes. I'm staying away from them.

Last night I was standing on the edge of the sidewalk sending a text and I saw this large gray thing out of the corner of my eye, but just kept texting anyway. When it got in front of me I realized it was an elephant and freaked out.

While at the pool today I had an awesome conversation with an American and his Thai "girlfriend". I use quotes because he didn't hide the fact that he was paying for her. He told me all the best places to go to get Italian food and find working girls. What a combination.

That is just a couple of the crazy things that happed. I'll have more later. I hope everyone is enjoying Mardi Gras. I'm sad I'm missing it, but Bangkok is kinda like Mardi Gras everday.
