The Temples



I've been trying to get some net on my laptop but it keeps crashing/ i cant get any wifi! i'm across the street using the net cafe, its only 30 thb for 30 mins, aka about a dollar a half hour. everything is pretty cheap around here. food, clothes. People seem to be thrown off when i speak english & laos. haaa. anyway i just wanted to post some photos so far. were staying in downtown bangkok. The culture here is very rich, within a few blocks there are sites were you can pray. Also people love the king, i havent quite figured it out yet, but i think everyday some people wear different colors with the amble of the king to show respect.

the weather is hot and humid like no ones business. the city landscape here is pretty much large buildings, with a few run down areas. there are venders EVERYWHERE. thats their income, selling makeup, food, fruits, everything you could imagine. I under estimated thailand, the mall here is way bigger then any mall ive been in filled with lots of expensive stores that we dont seem to have.

were lucky and have family drive us around. the driving here is BIZZAR...plain and simple. there are lanes but really no one drives within them. they have four lanes going one way and like 2 going the other with people driving over the lane all the time. most buses are free here. it seems like no one works with the amount of people wondering around the streets. SO MANY PEOPLE.



we havent done anything to exciting yet here. just alot of shopping. On thurs morning were going to malysia to visit my cousins for a few days and go to singapore. hopefully ill get more net time there. anyway i thinks thats all for now, i have some photos, so enjoy.

sorry the page isnt very pretty, not much time.
