Bangkok

Hello it is me I thought I would finish a few thoughts on Bankok. After we saw the kings palace we then took a tuk tuk to the largest lying Buddha in the world. If you do not know what a tuk tuk is let me tell it is basically a four wheeled motorcycle that you ride on the back of that you can fit 3 people in. It is alot of fun because they go really fast and you can feel the wind through your hair but the pollution in Bankok is so much that it almost makes you sick. It is also difficult to negotiate a good price with them since they do not have meters and you have to agree on a price before you start and give them exact change or else they will not give you any. So when we got there I must say the largest laying Buddha seemed to me to be unreal because it is made of gold and lying down inside a building. I took some pictures to give you an idea of what it looks like it was pretty fascinating. Then that night we ended up having a few drinks on Kosan road so after we got a little tipsy on the really strong Thai beer we went to a club where we met a lot of people but on the way to the club there where a bunch of Thia people trying to get us to go to the famous bankok red light district. So we started speaking to each other in only Chinese and no one knew what we where saying I think we had them convinced that we did not know anything else it was hilarious. Well that is all I have for right now there is more but I do not have the time I just got into Cambodia tonight and after traveling all day I am beat. I will trying and write again soon.
