Bangkok - here we are!

After many hours spent squeezing one's body into a static, economy sized seat everyone has managed to unfold into Bangkok without a hitch. Craig walked us through 'Southeast Asia 101' yesterday to help us settle into the crazy world of Bangkok before letting us loose on the city today. A flying tour of one of the oldest and most exciting cities in the world. Visits to ancient temples and beautiful traditional thai buildings was interspersed with high speed tuk-tuk rides through hot, smog filled Bangkok streets and relaxing long-boat rides down some of the city's rivers and canals. With a visit to one of the largest markets in the world to top it off, it was one hell of a big day! Tomorrow we head out to Northern Thailand feeling much more street wise and adventurous than we did acouple of days ago. Bring it on!
