| The "American" at the Pink Chair |
 |
| Spirit house on the corner where we do our laundry |
 |
| Sugar is great at modeling just about anything. |
 |
| I made this extra large... so you can read it... |
 |
| Beginning to look a lot like X-mas -- this was found in the instant noodle section of Tesco. |
 |
| The students all have adorable pencil cases... I wanted one too! This is a cat-eggplant hybrid, I believe. |
The falang found themselves with an extra long weekend and decided to take a one-night trip to Bangkok. On the way to the station we notice HUGE monitor lizards in a lake-like body of water at the University up our street!
 |
 |
| I got the picture with his tongue out!!! |
 |
| I brought this hat, but Andy ended up wearing it the whole weekend. |
First stop is the infamous Khao San Road. We book an incredibly cheap hostel room, and then take a look around town.
 |
| The hostel bathrooms were well-labeled. The one farthest away is for ladyboys (gateuy). |
 |
| Market stalls and falang for miles |
We took a long walk to China town for some grub.
 |
| River of garbage we pass along the way |
 |
| Intrepid urban adventurers armed with a guide book and energy drinks! |
 |
| We stop to check out a large temple built by King Rama V in the late 1800's |
 |
| Was accidentally burned on the exhaust pipe of a scooter one day prior! The exact same thing had happened to Kathleen a couple weeks before... |
 |
| Consulting the book! |
 |
| Made it to Chinatown |
 |
| Toy scooters for tots!!! |
 |
| Plastic watches by the bushel |
 |
| An armful of giant calculators... |
 |
| Knives and glasses |
 |
| Fun fruit! We tried one and it was pretty delicious. |
Heading back to Khao San through some pretty crappy Bangkok traffic via tuk-tuk.
Khao San at night:
 |
| Novelty giant lighter found |
 |
| Andy discovers his ear piercing is still open |
 |
| Some kind of Thai Luau going on |
 |
| Little girl tries to sell us roses (and fails) |
 |
| Break-dancing! |
