Run away tuk tuk!

Well today started off like any touristy day! Off to the grand palace we went ready for a day of history and learning!! But we arrived to find a "ceremony" happening and it was closed to the public! (SCAM ALERT - don't listen to the taxi drivers, tuk tuk drivers or randoms standing outside the palace - go up to the front entrance anyway (no matter what people say) if the Grand Palace is actually closed, the ticket office will tell you!!)

Alright, so off to a couple of different temples we go! Naturally we took a tuk tuk, negotiated a good price and took off. Our driver Leo was super cool, brought us to the first Wat and then we stopped at a tailor to have a look and of course he asked to take us to his friends shops to get his free gas coupons.. We agree just because we have time to kill... Then we got to the next temple, home of the giant buddah. Leo says he'll wait for us as he has all day, but when we left he was no where to be found... We waited ten minutes after realizing we never paid him... So we caught a cab and drove to the grand palace to find it closed... Uhhhg, so we'll try again tomorrow.
Oh Leo... YOU did leave us!

Cell phone heaven





Wow!! Thailand has yet to disappoint! I was at a mall in the Silom area called MBK! Biggest mall I've ever seen. It was 8 stories high and the entire 6th floor (which was bigger than a football field) was dedicated to cell phone and cell phone accesories :) which all of my friends and family know... I would have been happy to live there!
Today is a day of maxin' and relaxin' where we wait for phil (my brother) to get get off school and take us out tonight!
Well off to breakfast then hitting the pool!

Leaving on a jet plane

On Friday November 13th, 2009, I am setting off on a fabulous adventure to Thailand! I am hoping to write some blogs while I'm over there, nothing long just hoping to talk about some of the fun stuff I'll be doing!

I really can't wait! Mom and Dad are picking me up at the Airport in Bangkok for a family adventure and then it's little bro and big sis!!

Well that's all for now!
