“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” ― Gustave Flaubert


Well, I have arrived in Thailand! Unfortunately, my luggage arrived two days after me. Thankfully, my friend Tiffany and I wear the same size clothes. My first few days in this extraordinary country have been incredible. I visited the Grand Palace, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and Wat Pho, a temple that is also the premier Thai massage school. I also shopped in the Chatuchak Weekend Market, one of the largest markets in the world. Today, I went on a canal tour of Bangkok and visited the famous Bangkok Flower Market. It was only 102 degrees today (cooler than yesterday), and now I'm ready for an air conditioned nap before Tiffany and I go out again tonight.

Some Fresh Produce, and the Fruit at the Bottom of the Picture was quite delectable
