Nobody says Bangkok has to be you favorite, right? We just finished up 3 days/4 nights there … and I feel like I just completed a full-on jungle trek. Concrete jungle, of course.
This is my first time in Asia, and I admit to being pretty freaked out by the idea of going there. I put off reading the guide book until the day before we got on the plane and when I did open the book and start reading, I started crying at the same time. Am I going to be hungry for the next 3 weeks because I can’t figure out what to eat? How will I communicate with anyone at all?
As it turns out, the hard part was the size of Bangkok and the pollution there, not the people, or the communication. Amy joined us on our second day in Bangkok and is such a breath of fresh air. She is intrepid! What encouragement to just go for it and experience the culture … and is an inspiration to me to do the same.
More later…
