One Night in Bangkok

The alarm rang at 3:45 am on Saturday morning. We got out of bed, did the last-minute packing, and boarded the 5:45 am bus to Inchon Airport. Our plane left for Bangkok, Thailand, at 10:50 am. We had an unexpected layover in Hong Kong, and checked into the Marriot at 9:00 pm. It was a long day filled with airplane food and sermons on how to buckle my seat belt.

It’s 8:30 am on Sunday, and I’m listening to Elliot Smith and typing this poolside. We ate sandwiches and pastries for breakfast, and Kristie then went for a swim. A family walked by and stared at my Mac, either with lust or derision. I’m going with lust.

We’ll stay in Bangkok until Tuesday, then go north to Chaing Mai, then on Christmas, we’ll fly down to the island of Koa Samui. Katrina, Kristie’s sister, will meet us there.

I’ll update with pictures as wi-fi permits.
