And we're done...

Well, this is it, my final post. I have been in Bangkok for about 3 days, taking in the sites. I went to the Grand Palace (which isn't a palace anymore, they moved...but whatever), then Wat Pho...which houses the HUGEST reclining buddha I have ever seen, I hear it's 97 meters in length--I say length, cause he's lying down--lazy buddha...

From there, I went across the river, to see Wat Arun, which is loosely translated to "Temple of the Dawn"...beautiful. Yesterday I went to Jim Thompson's house, he is the man who revived the thai silk industry, and built an amazing house in Bangkok using 6 older thai homes from all over the country...very nice. Small glitch though, he disapeared while on a trek in Cambodia in 1967, noone has seen him since (dum dada dum).

Then I went to MBK. I have no idea how to explain MBK..it's a shopping mall, but it's full of really small stores selling crap clothing and jewellery, and there is 6 levels of it. It's insane...I had to go just to see what it was all about, but it wasn't for me...(I know? shopping, no? what has happened to me???)

So all in all a fantastic trip...I'll post pictures once I am home and not paying for internet (by the minute) and have a good connection...Back to life and reality!
See you soon xo
